I'm getting a weird knock almost like a dead shock or broken stabilizer link from the rear. The weird part is when I'm driving over bumps no noise, it seems to happen at slow speeds on turns or coming off driveways it's from the rear mostly right but sometimes left. I have the FRPP kit, anybody know proper torque specs for the upper shock bolts, stabilizer links and sway bar bushings??
