What is the torque setting for the big (1-7/8") axle nut that holds in the hub?

Nice that they are labeled for which one is LH thread as well...
 
I use 140 lb-ft. Some people do 90, so anywhere in between will be fine.
 
Yeah, I'm not sure where that 140 number comes from, but I use it too.
I just put the hubs back on last week.
 
Thanks! That number is now written down in my book for future reference.
