Torque settings

Unread post by MUTT Vet » August 28th, 2008, 9:03 am

I've installed a new rear diff and have driven my mutt a little, and I am sorry to say i didn't torque the 3 attach bolts according to specs, i just tightened them what i thought was tight enough. I have looked and looked and i can't find the torque values of the 3 diff bolts. I can find every other torque value. I used the TM 9-2320-218-20, TM 9-2320-218-34, and even the 9-2320-218-34P and couldn't locate the info...i probably just over looked it.

Can someone clue in the clueless? :D
