2020 JT Steering Gear Bolts Question

Per the charts I put up and that I have seen elsewhere, the aluminum steering gear bolts get 44 lb/ft + 170 degrees for front and 44 lb/ft + 135 degrees for rear.

Elsewhere I have seen the JL specs are 99 lb/ft for the same bolts.

Be anal and go by the JT specs? It's pretty simple to lay out a 180 and also a 135 with marks on nuts and box.

This is your friend for the JL/JT:

I don't understand why they couldn't just list the lb/ft, guess to discourage the DIY'r
