Subject:Rear axle torque specs?

Does anyone know what the correct torque specs for the rear axle nut on my 1988 GL Westy.
My Bentley says 360 ft.lbs. but I understand that that is wrong . I understand that The conversion factor from the 500 Nm was calculated wrong in the Bentley.,shouldn't it be 253 ft lbs?
I got this info from the westfalai.org site.
