I did a little searching but was unable to find what I was looking for. Does anyone know what the proper torque is when attaching the rear end to the leaf springs. The 12 bolt I am using has 4 bolts per side. I suspect that is standard. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Dennis there are no ubolts on this rear end. The bolts are part of the rear end.

I have dealt with quite a few 12 bolts in my time and have never seen the bolts part of the rear end. Are you sure someone didn't just drop bolts in? if so, replace with u bolts. Also don't forget to re check the torque after 2 or 3 trips and again a 3rd time about 10 trips later. They will loosen when they settle in.
