For 2007 rear axle: 60-65 ft/lbs -- 81.3 - 88.1 Nm
For 2009 - xxxx rear axle: 95-105 ft/lbs -- 128.1 - 142.4 Nm
Guess the change in bearing/axle size cause the change in torque values.
I mark one side of the adjuster nuts, loosen them each side about 7 to 9 full turns, take out wheel, replace it and then just retighten the adjusters the same amount of turns. Done this 4 times now and no problem with alignment. It's not rocket science.

I just replaced my rear wheel with a new one yesterday. I marked both adjusters then backed them both off. Removed belt and debris guards. I loosened the caliper and set it out of the way. You'll need a 36mm socket for the axle nut.
I know you can do it without touching the adjusters, but in my case it made it much easier to get everything lined up when I shoved the axle back through.
