Speed Sensor ?

Replacing speed sensor on 93 F350 4wd. O.D. light sometimes flashes. When I pulled old one out end was broken off. Removed cover and cleaned out. When I install new one does the end have to be turned a certain way or does it turn all the time? What is the torque on the rear end cover bolts? Thanks !! Any other things to look for in changing this sensor?

The speed sensor will only fit one way. The bolt that holds the sensor in (think it is 1/2) is threaded into the diff.
