Haynes says 96 in-lbs

According to the Haynes manual, the sequence is to start on the drivers side at the rearmost outside bolt, then come to the front most inside bolt, then to the rearmost inside bolt, then zigzag your way back to the front. Tighten this side to spec before doing the other side. After following the same sequence for the other side, check the side that you did first once more for the proper torque..

ok, i'm not a dummy when it comes to doing the work..just when it comes to using a torque wrench. I guess i should have said..what to i set the torque wrench on so when i check them and the wrench clicks/snaps..i know i'm done and move to the next one.

The bolts torque to 96 inch lbs - that's what you set the wrench to.
