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! -R  |

I don’t know if it makes a difference but I like to put the bolts in without the washers, pull the CV/gasket/flange assembly together, take off the bolts one at a time and put a new Schnorr washer on each bolt and torque to spec (31 ft lbs IIRC)
