torquing sequence:
120Nm
loosen 360 degrees
50Nm
tighten 90 degrees

In the Ford book that's a TTY bolt... I was planning on re-using mine anyway (always have) with a little dab 'o loc-tite, but just thought I'd bring it up...

yes, it is TTY, but it gives the torquing sequence... *shrug* i just figured the torqueing sequence puts it as high as it "goes". although, about reusing it, the manual says to use a new one, and the bolt and washer are pretty cheap, so why not replace it, just for peice of mind?

exactly. bolt and washer total cost = $6
don't forget to put some rtv on.
and that last 90 degree torquing is a real biatch!
hope you have big muscles.
