Default 1 ton Rear Hub torque specs??

I have a 1998 Dodge 1 ton Dually 4x4. Does anyone happen to know the torque specs for the main nut that attaches the rear hub to the spindle as well as the 8 bolts that attach the axle to hub? Thanks alot!!

I torque to 180lbft while spinning the hub, back it off. Torque it to 50ftlbs while spinning, then back it off 1/4 turn. I don't know what dodge recommends, but I've never had wheel bearing problems. As for the axle flange nuts, I want to say about 40-45ftlbs.
