Default Monroe Quick Struts

Both springs on my 2004 are broken and I was thinking of replacing them with the Monroe Quick Struts. I want to do the work myself.

I'm having a hard time determining the torque spec for the lower strut bolt/nut. Anyone know what it is? I saw 351 ft/lbs online and that seemed excessive.

I know I should get the manual but I need to do this quickly as my tires are showing the belts!

Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I was hoping to do this job myself but I don't have the compressor nor impact wrench to do the job. Unless I lever my torque wrench with a 12' pipe!
