Do I need to torque nuts holding lower control arm

[chronos]

hoping to get a quick answer.....do the u-bolt nuts
that hold on the lower control arm need to be torqued or
just tighten them up good. Also My orginals don't look like they
had lock washers on them but I am going to use them

Going to put it back on tonite so please respond if you know,thanks

Not sure on the torque numbers but my 'u' bolts have no lock washers either and mine is completely original..?
I think they would crack anyway with the weight stress upon them...sure someone will chime in with a better answer...

I generally get them as tight as I can.  guessing but 60-80lbs.
There were no lock washers on them that I know of.
