Default Front Suspension

I am rebuilding the suspension on my '76. I have dissassembled it completely and refurbished what will not be new. I am putting my spindle/knuckle, steering knuckle, caliper mounting bracket and brake splash shields back together and don't see torque specs for the 3 bolts that hold all this together in my assembly manual. Any leads as to where to find this info? I kind of want the wheels to stay on once I'm back on the road.
Also, any general front suspension/steering rebuild advice would be welcomed.
-thanks

I am getting ready to redo my front end also and I was wondereing where you got your assembly/repair manual.
I am sure I will need to take some of the parts down to the local shop for Ball Joints etc to be replaced.

One of the places the Assembly Manual is available is the Mid America motorworks catalog. www.mamotorworks.com
I also recomend the shop manual for 66-82
