Steering rack brace torque specs

Was able to source 993.347.131.02 and bolts from Sunset.

My questions is, what are the torque specs for the two bolts?

Thanks.

No really the answer you're waiting for but I did it recently and as usual I don't use any torque wrench, just feel the right torque...

I suppose that might work. I worry a little more since it's part of the steering system.

A general web search found a spec of 45 Nm or 33 ft/lbs.

I'll see if anyone confirms this.
