Torque Specifications

Good Evening,
I removed the front Springs on my F1 today. I removed a few springs and assed poly glide between the leafs. The service manual says the U bolt should be torqued to a specification. Have not been able to locate the specific torque, although I saw it some place. Does anyone know the specification off hand? Installed wedge casters which did not previously exist. Hope this helps the steering a bit. Your help is appreciated.
Thanks

Service Manual page 368 says F-1 front and rear spring clips are torqued to between 108 and 125 ft lbs. Stu
