Default Torque spec for driveshaft u-joint strap?
I'm used to using the stock 10 bolt, and on the pinion yoke it has the stock U-joint girdles.

With my new S60 (which is badass and I'll post pics later, it has these u-joint straps for the new 1350 joint provisions.

What torque specs on these for the driveshaft?

Not too tight as it can crack the cap of the u joint. I do snug as hell with a small wrench, seems to work fine.
