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.

http://www.smartbolts.com/2011/11/28...torque-charts/

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.
