Haynes manual says the following
Propeller shaft to final drive 57-67NM/42-49lbf ft
Centre bearing 18-23NM/13-17lbf ft
This is for non MT75 boxes
Also the propeller shaft bolt are 10.9 grade.

i aim for as tight as possible. Its always a good target, especially as in this case you are unlikely to snap or deform anything. Plus holding the prop still can be awquard.
