Default Suspension torque settings

Would someone be able to tell me what the following areas on the front suspension need to be torqued to? I have an '06 F150 XLT 4WD.

*Upper strut mounting nut
*[3] Upper strut tower nuts
*Lower strut bolt and nut
*Upper ball joint
*Front sway bar end links

I am getting ready to install a leveling kit. Hopefully the kit that I have acquired works with my truck. I may have gotten duped on eBay.

this is according to my autosprings install kit....

3 factory nuts on strut 25lbs
3 spacer nylon nuts 35lbs
lower strut bolt 225lbs
upper ball joint 90lbs
lower sway bar end links 35lbs


says to re-torque after 300 miles...

Again this is what Autosprings install kit says.... so take it as that.... hope that helps....
