Thanks I have the Service Manual. However, what did you Torque it with?

After I rolled the Car back and forth to center it I could barely fit under the Car to tighten it with a regular Wrench. Not sure I could have fit under with a Torque Wrench.

I shopped for a Crows Foot type Wrench but never found one sold singly that was cheap. I ended up buying a short US sized wrench that fits when the price was good on eBay but since then I have not needed to remove the Drive Shaft.

The slip brings up another issue; the need to be sure the Shaft is greased.
