Thanks to all for that info. At least now I can be confident that I am getting a proper torque where needed. Do any of you use liquid locknut on those nuts and bolts? I have some medium strenghth pucky that I thought about using, but now, not sure if it is a good idea.

Thanks Dave. Appreciate that info if you have it. I have searched the forum and after reading post after post, I cannot find an answer. I would have thought it would have been asked and answered many times, but I guess not...Ron..

This question probably has been answered many times, but I will ask once more. What is the torque for tightening the bolts and nuts on the split case?
