Hello
Thanks for choosing UMI Performance for your suspension needs. The 12mm bolts to the K member to the frame are 80ft lbs and so are the upper A arms. Them the 14mm lower A arm bolts are 100ft lbs. Now seeing how there are so many variance out there due to ride height (spring and shock combo) I don't have a standard setting. The best advice I can tell you is get it close and then take it to a professional alignment shop to have it aligned. Tell them what you are going to be doing with the vehicle and they will set it up for that.

If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
Thanks
Brad

I like something close to OE specs including rear thrust line, I run high air and rotate @ 5 k miles get 42- 44 k miles per set with NO abnormal wear/cupping
ps: I am lowered 1 3/4 in around
