V70 2002 D5 auto driveshaft related torque settings

[volvosam]

I am on a mission to rescue a V70 and have just swapped out the driver side driveshaft and brake discs / pads. I would like to ask for confirmation of torque settings and which bolts need to be replaced. All sizes are head of bolt / nut sizes not the thread size. Here's my understanding:
1. 13mm driveshaft securing bolt into end of d/shaft - new bolt required 35Nm plus 90 degrees
2. !8mm bolt/21mm nut hub to strut mounting bolts (qty 2) 105Nm plus 60 degrees - new bolts NOT required
3. Tie rod end 19mm nut 70Nm
4. Bearing support bracket 12mm (qty 2) 30Nm
5. Front brake bracket 15mm mounting bolts 100Nm
6. Brake slider pins 30Nm
Have I got this right please? In particular that the hub to strut bolts can be reused.

Personally at the risk of everyone jumping down my throat I don't bother with torque as much as all that, tight enough is tight enough lol I dunno nothing has ever fallen off or snapped

The exception is one time I didn't do a drop link nut up quite enough and I ended up with with knocking that took a while to locate. That was more to do with awkward Allen key counter hold but anyway

I did bother with the new bolt and torque on the end of the shaft but to be honest either way it's not gonna cause anything to fall off anyway worst case is the dreaded axle ping but just retighten

The hub to strut bolts no they don't need to be new but I replaced my top ones with the powerflex eccentric camber bolts which does make camber setting a bit easier instead of guessing with the slop in the holes. They did come with an advised torque and I did do that right because they're holding the wheels at the right angle under some stress so I wanted to be sure

Everything else I just do with a long bar until I'm happy. You can say 'click' if it makes you feel any better about it lol

You're probably right re the torque settings. That's interesting re the camber bolts - I was wondering how the camber was adjusted - the bolts that were in there had not been touched for a very long time - tight is not the word.
Do you have a link to the powerflex bolts please

Sorry forget that - google is my friend

Out of interest how does a tyre place adjust the camber on a standard car? Is it by undoing the large strut bolts? Must be a bit of a pita if they are as tight as mine were.

Well it varies from car to car but generally its a bit of adjustment with the slop in the fixings, you'll get something like +1.5 to -1.5 or thereabouts but it's a case of trial and error really they'll have to keep taking the wheel off and fiddling to get them accurately set. normally it's close enough and left with both slightly different but within tolerance

you can use calipers to measure one and set the other the same so at least they're both close, and try to aim for somewhere in the middle I guess

The eccentric bolts make it a lot more of an accurate method where turning the bolt gradually changes the angle
