Thanks Bion (AKA:Zombie Crusher)
I'm taking both differential covers off to do a thorough cleaning. You wouldn't have the bolts torque spec's for front & back would you?
Thanks a heap!!!

If that were the case they wouldn't bother with torque specs. But they do:
Rear diff cover: 28-38 ft-lbs
Front diff cover: 35 ft-lbs

I find no torque value for a catchup bottle. I do see one for a ketchup bottle though. I wonder if this is one of those torque to yield thingies....

Torque control for bottle caps is a big business.
Take this company for instance:
Precision Torque Control, Inc. - Capping Headsets
And here's a chart!!
