46730, Diff torque specs
Posted by 420aVenger, Mar-14-03 02:56 PM
I'm putting on my diff pin brackets but I don't see the torque specs for the bolts anywhere in the FSM. It tells how to overhaul the diff but there are no torque specs :wary Does anyone know what they are?

Well I do need the specs but right now I can't even get the damn bolts OFF. No matter how I hold it the diff still turns. Those bolts are on there very tight. What did you guys do to hold it to get the bolts off?

MAC Tools impact wrench ;-)

The torque setting is just "a shitload". Torque the crap out of it and don't look back.

Well no air tools for me ;( I had to use a big ass vise!!! That part just got added to the timing belt on my shit list ;)

I have a cheap torque wrench but luckily there's a "torque the crap outta it" setting :P Thanks Dino!!
