Looking at the factory repair manual it shows the ball joints themselves are pressed in. If you purchased an aftermarket component that bolts in I would contact that company and ask what the torque specs are supposed to be. If you are referring to the ball joint STUD nut, they are torqued in two passes. The upper ball joint to 37 Lb Ft on first pass and then final pass torque 90-110 degrees. Lower ball joint 37 Lb Ft and 125-135 degrees. See attached screenshots from manual.
Douglas, 90 lb-ft is ball joint nut torque.

I work for a Dodge Dealership. There are no torque specs for the upper or the lower ball joints on any of the Chrysler Vehicles. As long as you get them as tight as you can they will be fine, don't worry they are held in by road force anyway. Note: Be careful that you don't strip-out the nuts by getting them to tight.
