Strut rod nut

[NiceFishEh]

What torque setting would I use for my 69 Cuda on the strut rod nut at the K frame?

I'm using the Moog 2 piece Problem Solver with the steel cups facing out.

I think it needs about 50 ft. lbs. But, that will likely put it passed the pin hole.

Right know it's only snug and I can get the pin in now. Is this an issue?

Thanks

If I remember right 50 ft. lbs is correct but I don't have my FSM handy to check. It put mine past the pin also so I installed a flat washer behind it and it came out perfect.
