Does it matter what direction you install them, rear? and is there a specific torque setting I should use when tightening them?

Thanks,
for all the great info. Got em' installed myself this afternoon. Pretty easy, took the spare tire off, gave me lot more room, also dropped the sway bar in order to get the rear passenger shock off. They feel a lot better. I had gone 65,000 on the stock shocks, and I'm pretty sure they were shot a while ago. Plan on doing the front in a couple of weeks
