Rear Differential Flange Bolt V8 - Please Help

Good Afternoon

Just replaced the rear diff pinion oil seal and need the Torque setting for the Centre Flange Bolt.

Can’t put the new prop shaft On until then

Thanks in Anticipation BT Gap IID

This wont help you but Haynes Manual doesn't give a torque for pinion but suggests, marking the position of the nut before removal , and replace in the same position within 5 degrees . Presumably there is a collapsible collar .

Really appreciate your help, I have gone with the rough position it was when I took it off.

Just don’t want to do any damage to the bearing by over or under tightening it.

Thanks again BT Gap IID

The final torque value is dependent on pinion backlash, so the general procedure for oil seal replacement is to mark the positions before removal. You'll have to take your best guess now as otherwise you may end up with bearing damage or worse. yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

Mark the position of the flange nut and count full turns loosening it, as you typically would with outer tie rod.
