Default Tower Strut Nut Torque

Can anyone tell me what the torque spec is for the nut on the front tower struts?




Thanks.

i don't have access to a FSM but it's not an overly critical nut that needs to be highly torqued.
49 ft-lbs is good, seeing that the IS uses the same number!
my LS400 uses the same number as well!

Thanks bud. Looks good. I need to sign up for TIS, just wondering if $400 per annum is worth it lol.
