Hey guts is there a torque setting for the rear seat mounting bolts on a 2020 1500?
I had to remove the seats to get to the RFmodule.

I think the bolt has anti-corrosion goop on it and when you reuse it you need to clean it and reapply orange loctite or just torque it to around 50 ft lbs


10.9 metric class bolts have a metric tensile strength of 1050 Mpa and a yield strength of 940 Mpa
fail at around 15839 lbs sq inch
stretch st around 136335 lbs sq inch

EDIT : MOPAR tech authority
service manual states
Front mounting bolts 47N-m (35 ft. lbs.)
Shoulder belts 27N-m (17 ft. lbs.)

says 45 ft lbs
