haynes manual says hub body bolts 15-22 FT-lbs and hub cover bolts 72-109 in-lbs(not FT-lbs) hope this helps :D

According to Chilterns manual

The torque settings for a Vitara are:

6 mounting bolts 25Nm (159 inch lbs)

6 cover bolts 12Nm (106 inch lbs)

The Sierra are virtually the same.

No listing for Jimny sorry.

Cheers

THANKS GUY'S

the jimny doesn't have manual hubs standard, and the bolts that hold the auto hubs are like a reversed torque-screw thingy.

for coily hubs, (I think thats probbaly what you have) the mounting bolts are the same tourque as vitara. The cover bolts are 10 N-m or 7.5lb-ft
