Mine need to be replaced. Anyone know how many pounds of torque when I reinstall the bolts? Oh yea... it's a '95 F53.

I just re placed mine and I took the nuts up until the threads stopped. They call for 17.2-23.4 Lb-Ft by the book.

I replaced mine today and did the same thing. Tightned the bolts to the stops. I replaced with bushings off Ebay, the blue poly's and they fit perfectly. I had to use a bottle jack to either lift the sway bar or axle to realign the bolt holes when reinstalling.
