I installed a new cv shaft on the passenger side of my 97 Volvo 850. I need to know the correct torque spec for the cap that holds the shaft in place up by the transmission. It has two 12mm bolts. Is the torque 35 ft lbs? And my axle nut is a 36mm. Is the torque 89 ft lbs. Thanks.

The carrier bearing cap torques to 18 ft. lbs.

The axle nut is actually stretch torqued. 88 ft. lbs. + 60 degrees.
