Default Rear diff torque specs

Anyone know the torque spec on the rear diff of a 2004 Arctic Cat 650, or can point me in the right direction. Thanks

Default Rear diff torque specs

The torque specs from my service manual for 2004 machines says the following: The die-cast aluminum housings have been assembled with thread-rolling screws (trilobular). When assembling with these screws, start the screws carefully into the housing; the use the torque value listed below.

M6 (Torx T-30 Recess) - New housing 8-9.5ft-lbs (1.1-1.3 kg-m) - Reassembled housing 6.5-9 ft-lbs (0.9-1.2kg-m)
M8 (Torx T-40 Recess) - New housing 25-31ft-lbs (3.5-4.3 kg-m) - Reassembled housing 21-25 ft-lbs (2.9-3.5kg-m)
M10 (Torx T-50 Recess) - New housing 37-45.5ft-lbs (5.1-6.3 kg-m) - Reassembled housing 31-38 ft-lbs (4.3-5.3kg-m)

If you are reassembling the rear diff I would guess that they are the largest of the screw listed above. I am pretty sure the smaller ones listed above are the ones used to attach the skid plate and stick guards.

Hope this helps
