Sorry been away for a while.

I'm just reading up on this subject, as I am doing my first rear end. I have searched the web. There is some absolute silly stuff out there, but the link I posted seemed to be credible.

From memory, I believe I read that the factory set up was about 70 ft-lb of torque while slipping. It takes more to break it lose, but that number wasn't listed. So I guess you would need a pointer arm type torque wrench. My guess is 100 ft-lb or more to break it lose.
