clutch cover

[levi624]

What are the bolts for the clutch cover supposed to be tourqued to? I can't find it in the manuel anywhere. It's an 05.

just snug them down with a 1/4" ratchet, its not that important to torque them

im pretty sure they are 9ft-lbs. or 7ft-lbs. just dont overtighten them too much. they will strip easy.

they say 7ftlb but ive seen alot off ppl strip them even at 7ftlb i would just snug them lightly with a 1/4 as stated above

Yeah don't use a torque wrench on those, asking for problems.
Little 1/4" ratchet and going by feel is way safer.

The first time I split my cases I was using a torque wrench of the center case bolts like the manual said. 1 of the bolts snapped, and when I took the cases back apart to get the snapped one out, I noticed it stretched 3 other bolts.

I do anything that goes into alum now by hand, and only use the torque wrench for large things over 30ft lbs.

The only way I would torque them down would be with a beam-type torque wrench. The clicker just aren't accurate that low. With that said, just do like they said and use a 1/4" ratchet.
