I've got a Lubelocker gasket on it's way and was wondering what to torque the rear diff. cover bolts to. Anybody know? Thanks. Dave |

AS per service manual the rear diff bolts are torqued to 30ft-lbs. |

I got the lubelocker in front of me. It says: 1st: 15ft-lbs, 2nd:35ft-lbs. Its got a sticker on it with bolt pattern and all that, so no worry. I am going to install mine this weekend. |

The lubelocker is REALLY nice. And super simple to install. You will be glad you got it. |

Just ordered one, I used Permatex "Good Stuff" last time, but still leaked a little around the bottom of the cover. Didn't know the "torque it twice" trick at the time. |

Prior to using the lubelockers, I would always just get the bolts snug then let the RTV set up and then tighten the bolts down. Never had a leak doing that. Oh well.... ancient history. Lubelockers are the only way to go now! |
