Torque spec for rear hub/drum nut?

If anyone has the shop manual for our cars, can you tell me the torque spec for the rear center hub/drum nut. I will be removing my drums here shortly and I need to know the torque spec. Also, if you could scan the page for me, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure on this one but usually it's about 15 ft/lbs tightened while spinning the drum, then back the nut off about 1/2 turn and spin the drum and tighten to 15 ft/lbs again.....just don't forget the cotter pin or the dust cap.....might as well repack the bearings while youre there

the torque spec for that nut is 120 ftlbs but if you want to remove your drums why not just pull them off
the rear drums are not part of the wheelbearing/hub assembly
