This is splitting hairs but just checked my manual and the cover torx are 12.5 ft-lbs and the shift actuator with the 3 torx are 41 in-lbs.
And don't forget the criss cross tightening pattern

LMAO, thanks thumper. Its called diometric pattern ( the crisscross).

Yea, be careful tightening DD case bolts to spec - if you read the other DD thread, several guys have been stripping the case bolts when tightened to spec. Good place to practice your "hand tighten" skills.

I think what you guys are trying to say is diabolical. haha, "tighten the bolts in a diabolical pattern".
