So I bought a set of 20mm "Steeda" wheel spacers that I am about to install. Doing a little research has led me to conclude that the Steeda spacers are the Coyote spacers rebranded (or unbranded since there are no brand markings on mine).
At any rate, I went on a quest for proper torque specs since I thought the instructions were a little unclear. In my search, I discovered that the instructions that came with mine are word for word identical to these, minus the word "Coyote":

So I called Steeda and also chatted with CJ Pony Parts: Steeda said to torque spacers and wheels to 130-150 lb. ft. CJ Pony parts said to use 150 for both. Once I realized and verified by part number that these are indeed the same as the Coyote units, I decided to contact them as well. Below is what they said. I find it a little frustrating and perhaps I'm making too much of it. But after all the different answers, I'm inclined to use 100 lb. ft. for the adapter and 150 for the wheels. One would think it wouldn't be so hard to get some consistency on a single product.
