Hello All -
I just joined and I'm looking for info that may help me ...
I just replaced the rear axle seals in my L3430 GST. Not a difficult job other than all the ROPS bolts. Upon putting it back together, I will need to know the bolt torque for the axle housings (where it mates up to the main trans housing). I've searched a few websites and found nothing as a repository for bolt torque values. I am hoping to be able to avoid buying a shop manual ($114 at Messicks) simply to get some torque values.
Anyone have the torque specs, or know where I can get them for free?
Or, if anyone has a used full shop manual they'd like to sell (in good shape) I'd be willing to buy. (part number 97897-13000 according to Messicks).
