Hey guys, I am about to install an Icon Lift Kit (Stage 7) and I am wondering if there is a quick torque spec guide out there for the suspension components on 5th gens. Anyone have anything like this?

Also, for those of you who have done similar lifts, are there any oddball tools or special tips/tricks that I might need or would help for the upcoming job?

Thanks, all!

FYI - there is a product out there called torque seal. It's used to mark nuts and bolt heads (after torquing) to see if they have moved. It comes in bright colors, in a small tube, that are easy to spot. The one I'm most familiar with a bright pink! It's used extensively in the aviation industry for one.

You might also want to consider nuts and bolts that are drilled for safety wire and go that route. Safety wiring, however, is a talent all its own and requires some practice and education to do it right.
