All the pertinent torque values are as follows, per the Ford shop manuals, all in pound-foot units of torque (lb-fts):

Front Control Arm front and rear bolts: 129
Front Control Arm ball joint pinch bolt: 76
Strut to Spindle bolts: 148
Top strut nut (Holds the strut mount and spring on the strut): 46
Strut perch nuts: 26
Steering Rack mounting bolts (this must be moved to get the FCA front bolts out): 85
Front sway bar link nuts: 85
Front sway bar chassis bracket nuts: 52

Panhard Bar bolts: 129
Panhard stiffener right side nut: 85
Panhard stiffener left side bolts: 46
Rear Lower Control Arm bolts: 129
Rear sway bar mid-link nuts: 85
Rear sway bar end bracket nuts: 52
Rear shock top nut: 30
Rear shock lower bolt: 85

Wheel lug nuts: 100

I think that's all of 'em, except the little things, like the brake line bolt on the strut. All other items are small lb-ft, or as the German term might be, 'gudentite'. Don't break 'em off, but no torques are given (here or in the videos) for there's no real point. Just make them tight.

Use blue loctite at the very least on all these fasteners. Red or green if you're a masochist and/or never think you'll bust that fastener loose ever again. Oh, there might be a temperature related issue, but... I dunno. In these cases, I'm not sure that applies...

And if you'd like to see this in the manual... well, here:

DUH nevermind. Was trying to figure out what the wire piece below was for. figured out it was to compress the strut for shipping.

Got the car lowered yesterday thanks to Don Hinds Ford. Wife offered to pay for the install as she didn't want me to be crawling around under the car, or perishing under it as it rolled down our driveway. That way I also would get some type of warranty on the install. Big thanks also to Kelly at BMR for answering all my questions and concerns...

Ended up with:
05-10 Koni Yellows
BMR Springs (1.5" drop all 4 corners)
BMR Panhard Bar
GT500 Strut Mounts
BMR LCA relocation brackets

Returning the camber bolts to AM as mounting the strut mounts at 180 degrees off normal put the camber within normal limits:
