Just remember : use WAVE TYP lock washers, not the split typ .
Alternators cause all manner of mischief .
The proper torque is the main thing as the constant harmonic vibrations Diesel engines cause make things get loose all over the darn car, especially the engine and front body .
Like the lower belt pulley ~ it loves to come loose from the crankshaft's nose, pretty much ruining your day as well as the crank .
