Well Justin, I have always torqued bolts that pertain to chassis parts to: as hard as i can get it without:
1)killing myself
2)stripping the bolt
3)really snug
This is just something i have always felt for in the heavier parts of cars, i have never had a problem with it, but you may seek further advice, after working on enough cars and trucks you get a feel for that kind of thing, i do not know if there is a "spec" but I'm sure there is.
