NEED Torque Specs - Leaf Spring U-Bolts

Can anyone tell me the correct torque specs for an 88 3VZE Pickup U-bolts?
The 88 manual (22RE only) says 90 FT-LBS. The '93FSM says 108 FT-LBS. I think technically the axle in both trucks was the same for 4X4. Axle G292.

Anyone know the correct torque specs?
Anyone have the 88 FSM for 3VZE engine (different book for 22RE - that manual is available in some of the online links)

Thanks

I have never torqued any u bolts just run them up nice and even

Any where between 70 to 110 Foot pounds

The trick is having the torque even that is why there is such a wide range

Since I need to cut my u bolts off mine are always new which makes it much easier
