Well, simple answer is to torque them to whatever your U-Bolt torque spec is. The torque spec is not specific to the skid plates.

And that is going to be rated by size. If they're 7/16" then 45lb-ft. If they're 1/2" then 60lb-ft. If they're 9/16" then 90lb-ft.

Be sure to go back a week or so later and re-tighten. U-Bolts like to stretch, especially if they are new.
