12PT bolt for the wheel bearing

Hey guys I'm in the middle of putting the front end together after replacing the front u-joints on my 98. Can anyone tell me what I need to torque the 4 12pt 14mm bolts that hold on the bearing assembly to? My repair manual says 125-160ft/lbs? seems a little high?
Thanks
