Axle shaft bolt torque?

Post by Darrman »

I am putting a new axle shaft in, and am wondering what to torque the four bolts that hold the shaft. Cant seem to find the right answer anywhere.
Thanks!

Thanks! I need to get me a set of the original shop manuals, all I have is the Clymer manual, which is worthless at best.
