Here's the suspension torque sheet straight from GM;




Notice the difference in 1/2 and 3/4 ton, Chilton is off on their specs saying 85 for "ALL"..... ?


Good Luck !

Just noticed those were for a 74... But they may still assist you.

from the assembly manual, side bolts are 55 - 75 ft lbs and the lower bolts are 80 to 120 ft lbs. so 65 and 100 ft lbs puts it right in the middle.
