Could I ask you to look up the torque settings on the 4 bolts that hold the rear hub assembly to the backing plate. I got a 35mph kiss from a concrete curb during a recent snowstorm and I had to replace a bent rim and just last night changed out the rear hub assembly. I was expecting a spindle nut, but found it to be held with four bolts. It was really easy to swap out, but I haven't been able to find torque specs for these four bolts. I torqued it to 45lb/ft as a starting point so I could drive to work today, but would really like to make sure I have the right torque.

Thanks very much.
