Question torque question

I took apart a lot of the rear suspension in my quest to change bushings. Now, I'm finally putting it all back together and want to make sure it's not going to fall apart on down the road...
If the FSM doesn't list a torque spec for say, the lateral links... or the inner trailing arm links or the cabmber link, do you just tighten them up? Im thinking medium tight, not finger or light-tight, and not gorilla-tight, just "reasonably sure thsi is tight enough that it won't come off during a track day and make me hit something solid while sliding on my roof"-tight

Or is there a master torque spec list somewhere that I can't find?

Should be fine, just be sure to put some blue loc-tite on the first few threads(a few drops will do) so the bolts don't come loose.
