Note: I went through the service manual (1998 at least) and the cylinder head (valve) cover bolt torques were listed at 85 in-lbs for the 4.0, not 115 as listed here. the 2.5 was listed at 115 in-lbs.
What are the torque spec for the bolts (4) connecting the 42RLE bell housing to the engine block? There are two large bolts on either side of the bell housing and 2 smaller (external torx) bolts at the top.
This is for a 2004 with a 4.0.
The factory service manual just says "tighten" them. And I can't find "transmission converter housing to engine block" bolt specs in the main list above.
I found this for a JK 3.8:
Torque Converter Housing To Engine Block Bolt
95 ft-lbs
Any reason to think it WOULDN'T apply to a TJ 4.0 as well?
