Dang, when I redid my front end I just went as tight as I could with my 8'' ratchet. I haven't had anything come loose, checked it a couple times since then. I will however admit that my lug nuts have been a different story. Lost 1 of them within the 1st week. I guess it wasn't tight enough. I will try and find specs too. I will say you can download a manual for your car and search through it possibly.

Most are around 40~60ft/lbs.
The best way you can handle torque specs is to get yourself a Helm's manual.
The Chilton/Haynes are usually a waste of paper, but they may have these specs as well.
All threads have a general spec that you can follow.
This should work fine since the threads aren't lubricated and don't have much of anything special going on like engine internals.
You just need to know the type of thread you are working with.
