Best I can do is give you the spec for a 95 - I don't know if it will help or not but I do not have any other informaiton.

Shackle bolts and spring bolts (both ends of the spring have the same torque spec) show 120 - 150 lb ft for a monobeam front suspension in a 4x4 for the F250 and F350. U bolts are 85 - 120 lb ft.

These are for the 1995 trucks, spec may have changed in 9 years.

Sorry it is all I have.
