I installed my B&M diff cover over the weekend, I read the instructions on torquing the load bolts multiple times, it says nothing about the actual torque of the load bolts but torquing the jam nut 5 ft.Lbs.

My question is do the load bolts get torqued? Or just finger tight?

I currently have them torqued to 5 ft. Lbs. But have not moved vehicle.

This is what I followed when installing my TA cover. ^^^^

See number 10 & 11.

Not sure if it is the same as the B&M.

5 foot pounds is good.
