Never bothered torquing mine. Tight using a standard length spanner was all I used and it's been fine.

Thanks, I was just thinking of doing this anyway!

all work done now, New shock absorbers, New front pads with pins and mounting bracket, coolant flush with fresh coolant, oil change with oil filter, new fuel filter and brake fluid changed.
