Default Torque settings for rear Hub

Hi folks

I've been looking all day for the proper torque settings for the 3 torx bolts for the hub / bearing for a 96 C4. Also the torque settings for the universal bolts. I do know that the axle is 164 FT/LBS.
Thanks for your help

On my 86, the 3 bearing unit bolts are 67#, didn't see any #'s for the straps.
