Yeah, honestly....who cares about the torque specs on those bolts. just get them tight and they will be fine. Give them a few extra turns when you set the car on the ground and you are good to go

It's around 35 or 45lb/ft, IIRC.

Just because I was torquing the bolts that matter to spec, and those don't matter, just get them tight as you can with a small ratchet, it'll be fine.
