Default ring gear and cap bolt tq specs

Anybody got thier manual handy and can give me the tq specs for the ring gear and cap bolts in a stock rear I'd really appreciate it. Mine is packed in a box in storage and I dont feel like sliding around in the snow to get it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
Thanks

This didn't come from a manual. It came from Joseph who has set up lots of gears. Here's what he sent me:

Torque the ring gear to 85-95 ft lbs, just make them all the same torque and they will be good, and use blue loctite.
Tighten the differential bearing cap bolts to 75 N·m (55 lb ft).
