torque specs for rear suspension?
 

I'm trying to track down a clunk in the rear of my 2000 2.7. It rattles loudly over bumps if there is no load on the rear end (i.e if I put the clutch in, let up on the gas, or don't have the brakes on it rattles over bumps. If it's rattling and I apply the brake or accellerate slightly the rattle stops).

Anyhow, I thought I'd swap the control arms left/right to see if the noise follows the arm. This is primarily on the driver's side, so if it starts rattling on the passenger side after swap, I know what's going on.

What are the values to torque the bolts to?

Thanks!
Mark.

PS - any other tips on swapping these would be helpful. I don't have a Bentley's for this car, so I'm assuming I can just lift it up, remove the wheels, remove the parts and nothing else special.

most, including myself have replaced the lower control arms.

per Bentley manual,
page 42-10
trailing arm to;
to body = 160Nm/118 ft-lb (M14 x 1.5)
to control arm =160Nm/118ft-lb (M14 x 1.5)

Thanks!
Does it have to be under load or anything (like on a BMW) when torquing, or just resting on the ground?
