We have the same year 3400RL and our dealer said 110 ft lbs, but I have read 110 to 120. Many people split the difference and set at 115. I still use 110.

If I recall, the manual says 110 to 120. But my memory may be faulty. I set ours at 110. That's for the aluminum wheels.
This past week I replaced our rusty lugnuts with the torq n go lugnuts (stainless steel) like Orv uses. There is a warning on the package that the enhanced clamping power of these lug nuts makes them more susceptible to overtorquing. Orv warned me about that. So 110 will be tops on these lug nuts.

If you look on the Keystone Montana site you can find a pretty good video on lug torque....

They also show the proper torquing sequence, which I understand is particularly import with the aluminum wheels. If anyone's not aware of that sequence, here it is. In our case, the wheel has 8 lugs. If the top lug, 12 o'clock position, is #1 and they're numbered consecutively, clockwise, then the proper sequence is
1-5-2-6-4-8-3-7

Here is the link at the Keystone website video showing how to properly torque the lug nuts: Lug Nut Torque.
