Default Front axle and pinch bolt torque-'07 WG

A service manual isn't in the budget this week so if anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it. Can someone please tell me the torque specs for the front axle nut and pinch bolts for an '07 WG (or any '06 -up Dyna). As a bonus the sequence of retightening the bolts would be great. Thanks in advance. I love that I can post again. Great site.

Just got through doing all of this!

Axle...50-55ft-lbs (Do this first before pinch bolts)
Put a 7/16 drill bit in hole on side of pinch bolts (make sure it touches the fork leg) and then tighten
Back pinch bolt first...10-14 ft-lbs
Front pinch bolt...same

Thanks Claude, I'm glad I asked about the sequence also. I forgot about the drill bit. I thought that was just if you had dual discs (I remember doing this on my bagger). I had the torque pretty close ( i remembered the older dynas I had) but I could tell I didn't have the bearings preloaded right. I could feel a slight side to side movement in slow left hand corners after my tire change. This site rocks! Thanks again.
