E63 AMG S - front axle nut and strut torque specs

I'm replacing my CV axle shaft on my 2014 E63 AMG S model, The inner boot is leaking.
I cannot find the torque specifications for the lower strut to spindle 2 bolts I may have found it but not sure - 100nm?
I also cannot find the torque spec for the axle bolt that goes through the hub.
Can anyone help with this?
I thought I had the procedure for this but the torque specs seem imposible to find...


axle nut torque spec?

lower strut bolts to spindle/hub torque?

I believe may have found the torque instructions...can anyone verify this?
Surely someone has done this procedure....
Looks like the process is to tighten to 118 lbs ft. (160nm) then loosen , then tighten to 88.5 lbs. ft. (120nm) then tighten another !/4 turn?
Is this how I translate the torque sequence?

Good to know. These specs are usefull if doing the motor mounts as well. Per mb i'm taking it this hardware "should" all be replaced . Unsure on the lower strut/spindle bolt torque.
