It's gotta be rear, there are no Powerflex bushings that go on the front subframe!
It's a beefy bolt at M14. It laughs at 103 lbs-ft. I believe I've seen different torque specs for polyurethane bushings. Maybe it'll say something about it in the install directions.

They are actually already installed but havn't torqued them down yet.

Im gonna go with Andrew here, just go till they are nice and freakin tight. A 14mm bolt should easily take twice or three times that torque spec!
Torque specs are really crucial on things like wheels and cylinder heads, on some other things they are just being anal
There is something to be said for attention to detail however...'88 528e /// '88 M5 /// '89 951 /// '98 E430 /// '02 M5
