Default Torque specs for hub to front rotor on an '04 3500?

Hello, I have a 2004 cutaway 3500 (a Coachmen RV) and am replacing the front pads and rotors. I can't seem to find torque specs for the nuts connecting the hub to the rotor I just put on. My Haynes manual is silent. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I presume you're talking about the adapter for a dual-wheel chassis, and not just regular lug nuts.

Looking for torque specs for these nuts.

Sorry and to clarify, this is a dually in the rear. Are you saying that's an adapter that's only there because it's a dually? What does it do, keep the wheels more in line?

Yes that is a hub extension.

maybe so that front and rear wheels can be interchanged.
