Torque References

Does anyone have the reference or know the torque reference for the lower A arm U-bolts?

These are the U-bolts that hold the round bar to the cross member.

Re: Torque References

Thanks, I moved up to the later style 9/16" bolts and torqued to 85 ft pounds.

I found this quick reference sheet. It's actually for 73 - 87 trucks but lots of things are the same.
