how tight? sway bar bushing brackets and endlinks.

on any stock vehicle i've seen the nut was taken down until it stops, hence the reason for the threads being the length they are. i just took the links off my blazer and this was the case, and i remember the same on my regal. maybe i've been doing it wrong.
 
thank you. What about the sway bar bushing brackets. i dont want to strip the threads. how far down do you torque them?
