Can someone advise the torque value for the main gear leg bolt for the 170A?

According to the Service Manual and Table 7-1 of AC43.13-1B, 450-500 in-lbs. It's interesting that the C-170A IPC illustration shows the bolt to be an internal wrenching NAS147 bolt but it's listed as an AN7-20A. The illustration must be a carryover from the C-170 IPC where it calls for a NAS147 bolt.
