    Here is a chart that we go by, Almost all the Bolts on body and frame (not engine and Transmission) fall under this and this is "Dry" Torque.

    So look at the head of the bolt and nearly all of them have a class number stamped on the head and 8.8 is the most common.
    Also here is it is Foot pounds

    I torqued the OEM bolts there to 35 pound feet, I feel that's adequate
