I assume you mean the strut bolts.<p>It wouldn't hurt if it is handy but I don't.
Use loctight on them and you won't have to worry just dont strip them.

Use BLUE loctite. If you use the RED stuff you will have a bear of a time getting it off again.

Sorry I'm a little stupid with car talk... torque the bolts?<p>I also got a front strut bar... I just undid the bolts and bolted it back on. Is there a wrong way to do it?

This site explains torque wrenches:
