Not sure if you mean the front or rear knuckle strut to knuckle bolts. As such I attached both. If the numbers are small the front strut bolts are 155 ft lb while the rears are 188 ft lb
The front axle nut is torqued to 217 ft lb while the rear is 159 ft lb. Then line up the lock cap and install the cotter pin.
Once you have the strut installed be sure to check the alignment.
