I saw this post yesterday and meant to respond. The short answer is, yes, the bolts need to be re-torque'd. Of course, some will say they have built in ft-lb readings in their forearms but I personally like to use a proper wrench. I believe I still have the paperwork for the engine guards that may have listed the specs but, if not, I'm expecting my service manual any day now and will take a look and edit this post as soon as I have the information (unless someone else beats me to it - hint, hint).
