Mark,
I doubt that many measure the torque on the nuts/bolts. I think if you
use a standard 3/8 drive ratchet about 8 inches long and tighten them up
with some effort but not so much that you strain yourself, it will all
be okay or you could look at a chart that shows recommended torque for
various sizes and types of bolts like this
one....http://www.portlandbolt.com/technicalinformation/bolt-torque-chart.html
