Default rebuilding rear end but don't have manual

I have a 2001 chevy silverado and have taken the rear end apart.I have got most of it done but i don't know what the spec are on how much torque to set the carriage bolts to. I had to put shims in to fix the back lash and gear pattern. Now that i have that set i just need to know what to set the bolts at.

how did you set the backlash without any specs? I know this isn't what you want to hear but my recommendation - get a manual

you can find them a lot cheaper then redoing what you just did
