Hey Guys,

I have a very slow/small leak where the tail housing connects to the mid case of my tranny. Does anyone know the torque specs of those 4 bolts? I can't find it anywhere.

Thanks in advance!

Anybody????

I'm really just looking for the torque specs for the tail housing to mid case bolts.

I've been searching for a while and can't find it.

Thanks!

5-spd?

Section 6-14

These are usually sealed with RTV and if they leak, most often you need to pull the tailhousing off, clean off the old RTV and reseal it
