Torque spec?
I have a 79 differential cover. It has 7/16" center spring mounting bolts,,, not the earlier big 9/16" bolts. I know the torque spec is NOT 55 lbs to 75 lbs, but I am not sure what the spec is supposed to be on the 79. I do know they need to be tightened with full weight on the rear wheels.

Thank you. That is interesting, a 15 lb range.
I wish I knew why someone put a 78 diff cover on a 68,,,,, instead of a heavy duty one.
