I couldn't find any so i just cranked them down until i felt it was sufficient but would feel a lot better knowing they were torqued correctly.
I did use the prothane motion control stuff. At first it did look higher but after repeated toqure downs and a few thousand mil it settled down. Did you cut the old tube bracket from the old bushing like it says in the instructions. I first tried to install them without doing that step and it didn't work out so well.
