Interesting. I'm wondering if the damper side bottom nut torque spec you referenced is for an older Fox 36 (2011?). I found two other fairly recent Fox videos both with different damper torque specs:
The Fox 36 NA2 (2018) video at:
[https://www.ridefox.com/fox17/help.php?m=bike&id=845](https://www.ridefox.com/fox17/help.php?m=bike&id=845)
Lists a whopping 16.9 Nm for the damper side bottom nut but I believe this is not a Grip 2 damper.
The '2019 Grip 2' damper video at:
[https://www.ridefox.com/fox17/help.php?m=bike&id=947](https://www.ridefox.com/fox17/help.php?m=bike&id=947)
Lists 9 Nm for the damper side bottom nut for a Grip 2 damper on a Fox 36 or Fox 40.
Strangely they don't seem to have an updated full lower leg service video or instructions for the 2019+ Fox 36 Grip 2 (or an updated overall torque spec such as the one you linked to).
That all being said, I doubt that the 5.7 Nm spec would cause any issues if used on both sides.
