looking for torq specs for steering box bolts

I have found that a popping noise while I turn the wheel was loose steering box fasteners. I have tightened them down and was curious if anyone knows what they are to be torqed to. I do not wish to over tighten them for obvious reasons. I have searched and keep drawing blanks. Also the chilton and Haynes manuals did not have then listed in the front part of the susp. and steering sections. Any help would be great.
 
IIRC, I think they are 75 ft lbs. I can't remember but they should definitely be tight.
 
65 to 75 ft lbs should be good. add some blue locktite to prevent them from coming loose again.
