well...i just got this.....

http://store.summitracing.com/partde...p;autoview=sku

i'm ok with the bolts that bolt it to the rear end itself...but what the heck is the other 2 long gold bolts for ?....what are jam nuts and load nuts and why do they only need to be torqued to 10 ft lbs of torque ?...i've never torqued anything...i figure just tighten them up is good...do they HAVE to be torqued to exactly that ?....i'm lost...i ought to cuss out

those are the support bolts DO NOT overtighten and you must use rtv around those where they exit the cover
