I've been meaning to do this for everyone ever since the big argument in the other thread about this. My car's suspension is bone stock, noting REPEAT nothing has ever been done to it. Its this way from the factory:

The belt deflection spec is 7 to 8.5 mm for a new belt and 11 to 13, once the belt has been run.

Bolt torque is 14 ft lb for the top bolt and 40 ft lb for the bottom.
