Carrier mount,trans mount bolts and torque values
I was replacing the trans mount and carrier mount on my 1985 w123 300D and I found that the threads on the 2 bolts holding both of these parts were pretty smashed together as well as a pain to remove. For temporary, I installed same length, size, and thread pitch Lowe's hex cap bolts with lock & regular washers without difficulty. Any real danger just leaving these on the car? I looked online for torque values on regular 8.8 m10x1.25 bolts and their max torque value appears to be ~18ftlbs. Also, for the life of me I cant find the Mercedes torque values for flex discs, diff mount, trans mount, trans sub-frame, and carrier mount bolts. Anybody out there know the values?
