2001 5.9 Cummins 2500 4WD 8 Lug torque specs

I’ve looked around for the torque specs, but I’m probably not looking in the right spots. Anyone know the specs off hand or where I can find it. The wheels are aluminum alloy I believe and currently torqued at 100 ft. lbs.

I believe the FSM says 135 lbs for the SRW 8 lug and 145 for duals.

Mine is no 2nd Gen, but I don't think the torque will vary much...I use 140 Ft. Lbs. with 4 aluminum and 2 steel wheels...No problems here......Ben
