"Now, just put your spacers on the strut (top and bottom) and put it back in the Bronco. Tighten the top strut bolts, use the supplied lower strut nut and bolts from Zone (this will make removing the strut so much easier in the future since the stamped studs have been removed)."

What torque value did you use for the 3 Upper Shock nuts (15mm)? Where did you find the value?

The master list I have bookmarked doesn't show a specific Rear Shock Tower Upper Nut, but this is for the Front tower. 41 lb ft

When I did mine I did "good and tight" as I couldn't get a torque wrench in on nuts easily - which usually ends up somewhere around 75 lb ft. The Torque marks haven't moved in a couple of years, so I think it was ok.
