Body mount bolt torque

Hey guys, does anyone know if there is a factory torque for the radiator support and body bolts and, what are they? I am closed to installing my cab back on the frame and check alignment again but figure if there is a torque value that would help me out a lot. Thanks in advance.

Per the Shop Manual, the torque values are: Radiator supports 20 lb/ft

Front cab mounts 50 lb/ft

Rear cab mounts 20 lb/ft
