Anybody know the answer?

Anybody know what the torque should be for a Dana 70 (or 60) rear drum pivot bolt/nut (the small bolt that the emergency brake lever/self-adjusting cable fastens too...)? It's the small bolt/nut above the wheel cylinder....nut accessible from behind the splash guard. Looking for something better than good 'n tight....looked in Haynes...but no luck.

Thanks.

Don't know the actual spec, but tighten them good and snug with a 3/8 drive ratchet.

I have done this on the Dana 60 full floater and a Sterling 10.25 full floater.
