Default torque spec for front shocks

I looked all over but could not find the torque spec for the eye bolt nut for the lower shock mount. I just installed Bilstein shocks on my 1995 xjs. Also replaced the coil springs while I was at it. Never tried this before, but I worked through it, thanks to the info on this forum. I called Bilstein, since they do not supply the nut and bolt for the lower shock mount they don't have the spec for that. The torque spec for the top mount is 19 ft lbs. Thanks for all the great advice on this forum.

The manual states 61-67 Nm (45-49 ft lbs) for the lower shock mounting.
