    R380 pivot shaft

    In need of the torque rating for the 2 bolts holding the pivot shaft into the bellhousing. Looked everywhere but can't find it.
    Also is it normal that NEW shaft itself be quite rough?

    Metric Bolt Torque Table - CNCexpo.com

    STANDARD TORQUE VALUES - METRIC SYSTEM


    There is plenty of reference material regarding bolt torques on the internet, these links are just a couple. I would be using locktite as well to make sure it doesn't come undone. ( use the lubed torque value, if you have only a dry assembly torque reduce the torque by 10-15% for the "lubed " value). Normal machine bolt for engine /gearbox etc is grade 8.8 or similar.

    Don't worry to much about the matt finish, The shaft is slow moving and only "rocks". The matt finish might be to help retain some lubricant etc.

    apply a lithium based grease to....
    the spline of the input shaft
    the pivot ball
    the small pads that push the clutch bearing
    a little on the new housing where the bearing slides.
