Torque Specs for Front Struts

I'm planning on installing a KW HAS kit tomorrow. Does anybody have the torque specs for the various bolts mounting the front struts (i.e. 2 lower strut mounts, 1 top strut mount, 1 stabilizer link, 3 top bolts in the engine bay and the top nut that holds the springs on)?

Thanks in advance.

You're welcome. Do you have a press and dies large enough to remove the lower spring perch from the front struts?

I didn't use a press, rather the more crude approach of a hammer and block of wood. Both perches came off without too many hits.

You're asking the wrong guy. I didn't write it.
