SAS swaybar install questions...

Just arrived today and I've read some conflicting posts about the install. So...
1. Are the supplied bolts and nuts recommended? What type bolts/nuts should I get? What size? Should I use the existing hardware from the old swaybar?
2. Does paint stick to this factory zinc coating well (long term)? Should I prep by sanding/steel wool?
3. Without a torque wrench, how tight should I turn? (Hand tight + what?)
4. Do I understand the directions correctly that the bar should be tightened while pulled as far toward the rear as possible and with the rod piece positioned lower to the ground than the plate pieces (the offset). The pictures in the directions look like crap.
5. Is there anything else I should watch for?
Thanks for the help!
