Differential carrier torque

Now that I need it, I can't find it on here or in my manuals.

What's the torque spec for the differential carrier to the frame on a 73?

Thanks!

Hi CALV,
In the Frame Assembly section of the AIM. UPC2, A1
55-65 LBS FT, in 1971… don't think it would have changed for 73.
Regards,
Alan

Thanks Alan. I would have guessed 55 foot pounds for the 5/8 inch head bolt. I'd rather know though
