Default Torque Specs - rear drive & suspension?

hi guys,
i've checked the popular reference sheet from magicV8, but i can't find:

torque for rear bearing carrier to trailing arm bolts (4)
torque for prop shaft bolts to rear bearing (4)

also wheel torque - i've changed to 15x10 in the rear for my LS2/TKO project, wondering what a proper torque should be given that i suspect the original 60 ft-lbs call out isn't enough for this modified C2 with aluminum wheels.

thanks,

torque chart in help section near the bottom of my web page

most tire stores torque new aluminum mags at 90-100 lbs/ft. Otherwise, ask the manufacturer.
