Default Torque Specs for rear shocks 2009 flht

Need some help. I moved and accidentally packed my big book for 2009 touring maintenance in a storage unit.

I’m getting ready to put in some Legends Revo-a on the back and need to know the torque specifications for those 4 bolts.

thanks for the help.

35-40 ft-lbs upper and lower according to the 09 FLHTCU maintenance manual. Chime in if I'm wrong.
