Thanks to everyone who pointed it out: Bentley indeed lists it in section
42.2 (thanks to Joel Walker for the specifics). They faked me out by hiding
it in plain site. I was looking at the shock in the picture and it's not
near the shock. Instead, it's listed by the lower shock mount on the
trailing arm. As others pointed out, "just tight" probably would be fine!

Thanks

Tim in Seattle
