Torque Specs for Daystar Install?

I am getting set to install the Daystar leveling kit (based on all the great feedback I found here) and dont have the torque specs for the upper ball joints and sway bar end links. Anyone have these?

I see you have the kit installed. Did you install it without disconnecting these?

yes a big pry bar and they went right in, you will need a spring compressor. You can get it at auto zone, they loan them out. A impact is usefull too, the bolts that come with the kit have no way of holding from the top. You can tighten two from under the hood.
