Sorry I don't know the proper names but what are the torque specs for the bolts that go into the pinion flange on a 7.5? Thanks.

Pinion flange.... pinion flange....

Do you mean to retain the u-joint to the pinion yoke? If so: tight. Tight with a regular wrench, not tight with a breaker bar. Do them evenly, back-and forth, not all the way down one at a time.

torque ratings-
all bolts have torque spec ratings-

usually depends on the length size and thread count of the bolt. with the fine thread bolts and I think those are 5/16 so 20-25 will be sufficient...never had one ever back off.

As suggested snug all bolts so they are ALL seated then torque them. HAve fun :) Jim
