Looking for the torque specs for the front driveshaft bolts (on both ends transfer and diff) and starter bolts. Heading out now to pick up the new starter.

Starter bolts are 50 ft-lb

Driveshaft bolts are 24 ft-lb

The transmission crossmember bolts are 40 ft-lbs in case you drop that down to slide the driveshaft out.

Just make sure you dont ever tighten bolts/nuts with air tools. A member on the other forum told me air tools are only for loosening bolts/nuts. Bwhahaha I guess he's never seen a mechanic work on a car.
