Tonight I changed out the gear oil in my rear end with castrol 80w90 for limited slip.. The rear end is a 1041, so it didn't have any drain plug. The draining was super easy, removing the lower bolt though.

Do any of you guys know the proper torque to retighten these bolts?

Also, is the 1041 anything out of the ordinary? The owners manual shows a drawing of a rear end that has a drain plug, and my car does not have this.

Good news though, the old gear oil was dark, but no metal in it that I saw.
