Spindle Nut Torque - 9 in Drum Brakes????

MOPAR Gods:

what is a reasonable torque for the spindle nut on a 9 in brake drum setup? The manual says 55 ft lbs but that is very tight and the wheel barely turns. Right now I am using 25-30 ft lbs with no movement of the drum and wheel on the spindle. Some people say finger tight first and then i complete turn of the nut.

Thx....love MOPAR and Dodge Darts
