Starter crapped out, got a new one and I'm about to replace it. I searched the threads and found the procedure, but I need to know torque specs for the half shaft?

Hardest part for me was keeping the front wheels immobilized while torquing on the bolts using a lift. If I did it again I'de probably keep the wheels on the ground, use a creeper, and break the bolts loose. Same for reinstalling.

I vaguely remember that the manual wants you to remove the midpipe first. In my case I didn't feel like doing this but I managed to get the halfshaft out anyway.
