I just replaced mine also. I searched for a ball park torque spec, but couldn't find any, soIi just went to town with a ratchet until I felt they would never unintentionally come loose.

Used Bing to find the chart, metric charts out there also.

Link above should get you in the ball park.

What brand body mount did you buy? I need to order a set for my truck, the ones you have look nice.
