Hi,

I never realized how many bolts this uses. LOL

As far as the torque sequence, see pic 1 below. Pic 2 provides the torque specifications. Please note that the torque is in inch-pounds and not foot-pounds.

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,

Joe

See pics below.
