Without reading the manual for context I think they mean the nut for the holder rather than the nut on the bolt holding the shock.
Question About Shock Clevis
Hey Y'all...so the FSM states that the upper shock clevis needs to be torqued to 32 ft-lb...

When I torque it this much, that clevis does not rotate hardly at ALL. I mean I had to put it in the vise and grab the shaft of the shock and really push on it to make it move.
For those of you that have removed and installed this, should it be able to move easy? I'd think you'd want it to freely pivot a bit, but at this torque it just doesn't seem like it will.
But maybe it needs to be that tight? I'm installing the air ride and I just want to make sure it's really supposed to be that tight...
