Ok, so i installed my aussie locker this weekend, and went to tourque the ring gear bolts back down and i went to 50 ft/lbs first thinking that was it. Went throught the manual and found a refernce to 108ft/lbs so i started tourquing and broke off a bolt. this is a d44 front by the way. So, someone tell me, what should i tourque to??

A google search brings a few sites and they all listed 100 FT-LBS.
I dont know for sure, but are you even supposed to re use the ring gear bolts? You might not. But like I said, I'm not sure.79 Cherokee Chief 401/T18/D20, MPFI fuel injection, hydroboost, otherwise stock.

yeah, that shouldn't have snapped. Yeah, it's a pain but better to find it now then later
You are supposed to use new bolts everytime but I have heard of using the old ones without much issue.Places to Wheel in the Southeast

This made me go and look at the install instructions for my Lock-right... it only says "install the ring gear now and torque the bolts". Hmmmmmmm... might need to look into this a little more closely before I install it.Paul

Supposedly, on some 44s you can manage it without taking out the ring gear IF you can get the roll pin out and IF the ring is small enough to get the cross pin out. It's supposed to depend on the gearing. High gears you maybe can; low gears you can't. My 3.54s are right at the cutoff, but I'm expecting to have to take the carrier out.Paul
