Torque specs for rear subframe bolts?
It occurs to me that I should have had the service manual in hand before I started this mod, but....
Does anyone have the torque specs for the rear subframe bolts? And for that matter the bolt that holds the two halves of the subframe together?
I'm assuming my standard practice of "tighten until loose then back off a quarter turn" won't work here.

nuts - 40 ft-lbs
bolts- 32 ft-lbs
and the bolt on the back- 22 ft-lbs
the center plate that holds them together - 9 ft-lbs
hope that helps
