Default Rear suspension torque specs?

Hey all - I'm doing my rear AAL today (front spacers tomorrow, assuming I don't hit anything too screwy on the rear!).

I need to know the factory torque specs for the leaf spring centering bolts, the u-bolts, and the lower shock mounting bolts.

I searched and found this thread: Torque on Leaf Spring bolts, which says 98 ft-lbs for the leaf spring bolts and u-bolts - is that correct? What should I use for the lower shock mounting bolts?

Thanks!

I am looking in the manual for an 03 Tundra.
It says:
Install spring center bolt and nut @ 33 ft. lb.
Install the shackle and leaf spring with 3 bolts, washers and
nuts @ 125 ft. lb.
Install U-bolts with 4 washers and nuts @98 lt. lb.
Install lower Shock bolts @64 ft lb.
Install nut on top of shock at 15 ft lb.
Shackle bolts and nuts @125 ft lb
I hope this helps. Good luck.
