What size are the Girdle bolts? As well as the drain bolt , and cover mounting bolts? It looks like the top fill bolt is a 10mm hex wrench, but the other bolts are smaller, and do not seem to be metric as well.As a 5-6mm wrench does not fit, a 5mm is too small, and a 6mm is too big
Cover to housing bolts - 7/32" hex Upper fill plug - 10mm hex Lower drain plug - 6mm hex Load bolts - 6mm hex Load bolt jam nut - 19mm For what it's worth, the Husky branded tools that I used in the video worked fine. Hope this helps! -Landan
Love your channel. Hopeful I will be wrenching on my beast ('90' LX Notch) soon, just need to get through the holiday season so I have some money to play with!!
5:37 - This video says to torque the jam nuts to 10 ft/lb, but the LMR website says "Torque the jam nuts to 25-30 ft./lbs" - Which is the correct torque?
I said that wrong in the video. The website is correct. Thanks for asking. We'll add a pinned comment to the video indicating the proper torque specs. -Landan
Would defeat the purpose of buying the cover in the first place. It is a girdle. It is designed to support the bearing caps under load. Without the correct torque preload they are not serving their intended purpose.
ATTENTION! At 05:37 in the video, the torque specification is incorrect. The jam nuts needs to be torqued to 25-30 lb-ft. Thanks. -Landan
4 years later but thanks 😎

I really enjoy LMR AD free content and the slo-mo effect in your videos....keep up the great work ✌😎👌
The step at 6:34 is necessary. I didn't use any sealant and that plug leaked.
Love you guys 😎🏁🏁🏁

More like ugly as can be...looks like a blown out Escort.

Hi do I have to torque the load bolts? Can I just torque the jams nuts

4.10 doesn’t work with cover
You serious?
@@synister281 yes I read description on thier website about it.
@UCzJw4yqoRnSIZBige2p2uTw might have to talk to LATE MODEL RESTORATION for that information. I personally don’t know about the 2011-14 S197.
I just installed it on my 8.8 with a 4:10 and no issues whatsoever.
Who's the guy with the weird hair cut
