Confirmation on front end torque specs

Ive been rounding up some torque specs for my 4" front lift install, just want to make sure they are correct before i proceed. Heres what ive gathered (in ft-lb)

U bolts - 100
Leaf springs to shackle - 203
Leaf springs to hanger - 185
Track bar bracket - 65
Track bar - tight...getting it as tight as i can then having a shop torque it fully
Pitman arm to steering shaft - 185-200
Drag link to pitman arm - 65

Do these sound right? Thanks
