M38 Torque values

[1951D47U]

Installing rear pinion seal and rear seal on transmission. What are the torque requirements for the 1952 M 38? I have TM 98012 but for the life of me cannot find torque specs. Must not be looking in the right place.

If you are just changing a pinion seal on the diff, you can mark the nut and pinion remove the yoke, do the seal, put it back on and tighten until the marks align. The crush sleeve and preload will stay as they were when you removed it.

As fore the t-case output, no clue.

I would think that somewhere there is a chart showing various torque values like for instance, lug nuts, main bearing caps, rod caps, harmonic balancer, etc. Something else that would be nice to know is what modern parts are substitutions. Surely there are brake kits, thermostats, points and codenser, etc that have modern equivalents. Thanks for responding.

There are. There are generic values posted somewhere here for bolts/nuts, but, when a diff is set up, the values assume you are building it, crushing the sleeve that is on the pinion to set the lash. In the past, on older stuff and up to my jeep D30 front, Chrysler rear, GM posi, and the rear diff on my '06 pick up, I have done the mark and tighten to the mark and had zero issues. As for engines and SPECIFIC pieces-parts....rods, mains, damper, flywheel, head bolts, that would be up to the manufacturer of the component. For that, a TM or FM would be needed.
