T56 Trans Bracket Torque I noticed the trans mount torque specs on installuniversity.com (4 bolts) are at 43 lb ft. However, I think this is referencing the M49 (lighter trans). The T56 in by book is 66 lb ft. for the 4 trans mount bolts. Can anyone confirm? I was going to send a message to the installuniversity site, but the email was not valid. Thx!!!

I wouldn't go that high on those bolts, They are just spot welded on the other side. I've also found they strip easily too.. dammit. Just torque up up good and evenly to seat it well, shouldn't have any issues at 40ft/lb

Yeah, I torqued according to the shop manual at 66 lb ft, but one of the bolts didn't click on the torque wrench, so I just left it alone vs. stripping it.
