Panhard bolt torque specs?

Well, I tracked my severe dog tracking problem under load and squeaking rear suspention to the bolts that secure the panhard bar overhauling. What is the torque spec for these? I tightened them to 65 ft-lbs of torque after I put in my rear but maybe that wasnt enough. Either that or the metal sleeves in the elastomer bushings crushed down or something.

You're using the stock bar correct? If so, 60-65ft-lb should be plenty.

I retightened them,,hopefully it wont happen again. Really made for some white knuckled driving the other day when the rear can move around so much.
