As others have mentioned, torque specs apparently were not a big deal then and I did not find a chart or even much mention of them in Motors 11th where they cover rear axles in some detail.

The only prewar info I found was suggestions mentioned in the SMs where they said "tighten the axle nut securely". First postwar chart I found with a spec for that nut was the range you mentioned earlier of 200-270. The center section may be different on your axle but since the shafts and drum construction is so similar I would go with that spec.
