Default Correct foot lbs torque for diff

Going to have my local garage change my diff fluid this week and would like them to make sure that the diff bolts are torqued correctly.

How many foot lbs of torque should this be?


Thank you.

I Think you need to be a little more specific. The filler plugs?

Thanx everyone; should have been more specific. Not necessarily the drain plug but any bolts that are known to come loose. The torque specs really help but don't want them to necessarily torque every bold to specs or should I. 2005 vert; 24,000 miles
