torque specs
What are the torque specs on the rear diff cover bolts and fill plug, and the fill and drain plugs in the manual tranny? I am thinking about 20 lbs/ft for the cover bolts and 30 for the plugs? Thanks in advance.

"Torque the cover bolts down 29-39 lbs-ft. I torqued all the bolts in a star pattern to 33 lbs-ft and then again at 36 lbs-ft. Ford recommends waiting 1 hour before adding new fluid. It was getting late at this point, so I rolled the truck out of the shop and let it sit overnight."
