D44 front hub bearing torque

[reddog]

I am well versed the the torque till it feels right method of front bearing setup. I am curious though what the book says to torque USED front bearings too. Since I gave my FSM to someone with the same year Cherokee as the FSM I don't have the info handy. Would somebody look it up for me please ?? TIA
