72 911 ball joint torque - need confirmation please

[mac73s]

The 72 on factory workshop supplement calls for the ball joint nut (45mm) to be torqued at 180 ft. lbs., where the earlier manual (65 - 71) says 108 ft. lbs. A significant difference that would result in a significant under or over torque settings, so I'd appreciate confirmation for the 72 and up ball joints. Thank you.

Thank you...confused by the hyperlink though which says '80' ft. lbs....but more importantly, there seems to be agreement that it is 184 ft. lbs. Thank you!
