Torque Question
I am putting my '70 back together after putting in new kingpins. The seals on the brake cylinders were clearly weak, so I have replaced those also. My manual does not give a torque value for the two bolts that attach the cylinders to the backing plate. I would guess 15-25 ft lbs. Does anyone know for sure?

I would not put much more on them. They are only 1/4" bolts so just snug with wrench/rachet. It's one of those things that I never really put much thought into torque. Usually they will rust together enough that they would never come loose anyway.
