Rear brake drum to hub torque values

[scott nutter1]

Does anyone know the torque values for the bolts that hold the lug hub to the rear brake drums?
I've checked the manuals and I can't find the numbers.
Thanks, Scott.

IIRC, only Chrysler ever thought it necessary to use LH lug nuts on one
side of their cars (L or R?). T/F?

My 1953 Willys Jeep had LH lug nuts on the driver's (IIRC) side originally.

I don't know if Willys did this on their cars too or not.
