Watch this vid that TF put together, then take a pic of your front end and compare.

You are right in wanting to check the torque on everything, but I do not believe all the components you are interested in torque to 120lbs. Specifically, I believe the upper control arms are lower, in the 75lb range...
Check this out: http://project-jk.com/jeep-jk-write-...orque-settings
That should list all the proper torque specs you'd be interested in.

Not everything gets 120lbs of torque, here is a great reference!

That has all of the specified torque settings, and yes it is a good idea to re-torque everything after a wobble, off-roading trip, or oil change!
