Please confirm torque values - front axle
I must have lost my manual in a recent move, can someone confirm the torque values for the front axle and two pinch bolts on a 2012 WG.
I remember 65 ft#s for the axle and 35 for the pinch bolts, but I can't recall if that is ft or inch #s.

Great, thank you.
I didn't want to chance it with this holding exactly half of the wheels to the frame

Also, the front axle cap screws (right leg) are 132-180 In-Lbs.

Too many #s for my head
but getting very close to my SM
Dropped my case off today, probably back in about 2 weeks and plenty of $$ spent, then try to put all the pieces together
