lca torque questions + help with rear suspension please! Hey guys, I just installed my gmmg catback and moog bushings in my lca's yesterday and I know the torque specs for the lca bolts is 87 lb ft, but my 1/2 inch torque wrench doesn't have enough clearance to get on the bolt. Anyway, I had to try out the GMMG, so I CRANKED on the lca bolts (while suspension was loaded like it should be) just to take the car on a test drive. Is it possible to overtorque the lca bolts? because I probably tightened them more than 87lb ft, so should I get a smaller torque wrench and bring them back to 87lbft or are they ok being much tighter? BTW, I don't have any more wheel hop
and maybe its just me, but the wheels seem to spin much easier with the new bushings.

oh, yeah and I had to unbolt two bars in the reear suspension (not sure what they are (newbie)) to get the exhaust in. One had 3 15mm bolts on the one side and the other bar had a 19mm? bolt and like a 13/16 head. Does anyone know what these are called and what are the torque specs? ( I just cranked on these too because I was too excited to try out my new exhaust
)
Thanks
