All this talk about torqueing bolts down, do we have a chart somewhere listing torque specs for bolts on E60s?

Bentley manual. strut top bolt should torqued to 48ft-lb but it needs special torgue wrench i think as the shock spins and there is no way you can use the regular wrench.

Well I didn't go by any manual. I grabbed the longest handle and torqued it tight as I could.
