Torque specs on grade 8 bolts

Yes, I have the grade 8 bolts kit from a couple years ago. My question is are the torque specs the same on grade 8 bolts than the OEM bolts? Planning to retorque control arms and steering linkage tomorrow morning.

Duel breaker bars may work for more leverage

Thanks, yea I thought about that. I've got less than hulk sized arms so I need both arms on the torque wrench. I'm thinking maybe wedging a block of wood between the wrench and an immovable area (axle tube or upper control arm mounts) and using that as my stopper. Then just banging the wood out with a hammer after I torque.

I have done that as well it does make it nice to use both hands on bigger pulls like that
