Axle fell of the transmission yesterday. Bent a bolt and sheared a bolt. The other two appear to be fine and just loosened themselves out.
My assumption is I didn't torque them down correctly.

Question is.....
Bolt size? I have M8 special bit

And...

There are 6 holes....4 bolts and 2 alignment pins correct?

I appear to have lost those 2 pins when the axle came off.

Source for the 2 pins?

Thanks all!

Not so sure the outer hub recesses are supposed to be packed with grease. McMaster/Carr is the place to buy the Schnor washers. Also known as 'Belleville'. Spelling might be off. Buy a 100 pack. They work well for the intakes on carbed cars rather than cut washers
