I opted for poly bushes & want to make sure I’ve the nut tight enough as when I took them off it took no pressure at all to loosen them.

Does anyone know the torque setting for the top trunnion nut?

Re: Torque setting
There is no factory torque setting for the top trunnion nut - it just has to be done up tight and the lock washer bent over to keep the nut from undoing.
The special slotted (factory 2 piece) washer has to be tightened hard up against the shoulder of the pin.
The aftermarket one piece slotted washer is better made than the factory 2 piece special slotted washer.
