Default torque spec on axle pinch bolts

So I got the new rear chain and sprockets on my '98 Xplorer and adjusted the chain. Just wondering what the pinch bolts should be torqued to so I don't damage the bearings. Thanks!

the torque on the housing is 30ft.lbs without a trailer hitch; 45 ft.lbs with a trailer hitch. And the caliper mount is 10-12ft.lbs. don't forget teh chain guide, allow 1/8th inch clearance and the torque on that bolt is 5ft.lbs.... this is from the Polaris manual... I hope it helps.....
