I'm replacing my rear main seal and was wondering if any one knew the torque specs for the flexplate bolts and the bolts that hold the rear main seal in? Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk |

INSTALLATION NOTE: Do Not lubracate new bolts as they are already coated with an anti-scuff treatment.Align the flex plate to hub paint marks, where applicable. 1. Install the flex plate hub and hand tighten the fasteners. 2. Tighten each flex plate hub fastener to 50 N·m (37 lbs. ft.) in a clockwise cross sequence. 3. At this point, loosen one flex plate adaptor fastener, and with a torque wrench and angle gauge, tighten the fastener to 25 N·m (19 lbs. ft.), plus 60 degrees. 4. Perform the above procedure for the remaining flex plate adaptor bolts in a clockwise cross sequence. 5. Install the flex plate locating pin. 6. Install the flex plate to the hub and install the fasteners. Tighten the flex plate fasteners in a cross sequence to 44 N·m (32.5 ft. lbs.). 7. Install the transmission (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 42RLE - INSTALLATION), (Refer to 21 - TRANSMISSION/TRANSAXLE/AUTOMATIC - 45RFE/545RFE - INSTALLATION). |

It is not required, but it can't hurt either. The angle torque is not very exact for most folks doing it themselves. |

ok great I do not own a angle gauge so do I need to go out and buy one or do you think I could get away with out it? |

You can visualize 60 degrees and then check the torque afterwards. Just make sure it is reasonable to the bolt and grade specs. |

OK got everything on and used angle gauge on the hub but is that the correct torque specs for the flexplate bolts? Most vehicles I worked on called for around 70 |
