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..

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