what is the torque rating

[birdaprey]

I just put on some lowering links on and need to know how much to torque them to?

I have them at around 55 pounds but the bolt still spins if not holding the other side when tightening the nut.  
is this what it is suppose to do, the bolt spin free in side the tube?  (it was very tight before I broke them loose for the first time just can't remember if it spun free in the tube)

Suzuki torques the torque link nuts front and rear to 20.5 lb-ft per the shop manual. They check them initially at 600 miles and every 4000 miles after that.

thought I saw some where it was around 50 pounds?
20 seems like its not enough?

Tighten them down to "tight as hell" cause thats what they were when I loosened them!
