The FSM torque spec for the strut bar stock nuts and bolts is 38 ft-lbs.

I know I cranked most of mine down a little too tight the first time using 1/2 drive torx sockets

since then I use 1/4 drive hex/torx sockets or bits and just snug them.

I find myself taking things apart too often to bother with loctite on most of the bolts in the kit. Might use it on some of the fender bolts.
