Anyone know off hand what the torque setting of the case bolts on an ARB locker (RD07 :: D44) should be?
I stumbled across this thread:

and it says 13 lb-ft near the bottom. The thread also says they are torque to yield but...
I tried torquing them down a little while ago. I wasn't sure what to set them to so I figured the ring gear bolts are 55 lb-ft and since they are smaller bolts knock off 10 lb-ft. First one snapped as the torque wrench popped.
I don't think these are torque to yield bolts...probably would have snapped before that.
Anyone know the torque? I can call ARB in the morning but if I could get this thing buttoned town this PM it would be more convenient.
TIA
