I have a squeek that has developed in my front suspension. I have disassembled the entire suspension and lubed every Heim joint with dry teflon lube. No help. I think the squeek is coming from the lower coilover bolt itself. So in the processes of re-torquing the bolt, I noticed in the build videos, it says to torque to 30 ft/lbs. But every other 1/2" bolt is at least 80 ft/lbs. Is there a reason why these would not be torqued to at least 80 ft/lbs. They are grade 8 bolts so really they should be tightened even more then 80 ft/lbs. Any help is appreciated.
