I am reassembling the rear cover plate of the Box after replacing the radial shaft seals and wonder what is the torque for the bolts showed on the photo below ?
They seem have some thread lock when i have unscrewed them but need a confirmation.
I don't find these torque value on the BBB which shows another kind of box

yves: Haynes says Rear Cover Bolts large 45Nm, Rear Cover Bolts small 15Nm. I hope those are the ones. They are called 'bolts' and you show "nuts", but this is the only thing I could find for rear cover.

Thank's Mike you are right , 1 is a bolt with two threads opposite and nut at the middle 2 is the nut for the bracket for the rubber box fixation
