There is a flange nut that holds the upper control arm to the top half of the steering knuckle. I was wondering what the specs on the bolt are so I can replace it?

The nut should come with the new upper control arm.

The tightening torque is 66 ft.lbs for the outer nut. the nut to body is 35 ft.lbs.
