Specs for my XB9 is 39-41ft lbs. I would think it is the same.

FC is right.

39-41'lbs for the axle WITH Anti-sieze.
20-22'lbs torque for the pinch bolts.

Be careful, if it's like the XB9 it's a left hand thread and if your torque wrench doesn't break for left hand thread you can overtighten the axle crush the spacer and destroy the wheel bearings....how do I know this...don't ask
