Dropmember to frame bolts, torque specs

How much am I supposed to torque those bolts that hold the dropmember to the frame? What about the bolts on the side? I got a used one without any documentation.

Thanks,
Matt

My instructions just say tighten, except for this
"Upon final installation torque the control arm mounting bolts to 85 lbs. ft. and use loc-tite (it is important to have the suspension at its ride-height when torquing these bolts)."
