Re: Torquing Specifications for XLT600 Engine Overhaul

You really should get a copy of the service manual. If you want the thing to stay together, you really need to check the crankshaft to make sure the run-out is within spec (v-block and dial indicators) and since you seized it, you should really check to make sure the crank didn't twist out of phase (using a degree wheel and a dial indicator). The common problem with the older XLT cranks was that the crank would twist and that would cause the PTO cylinder to seize. If you put it back together that way, it will either seize again or break the rod when the bearing fails. But anyway, you need to clean the cases and the outside of the bearings so they are free of oil & grease... make sure all the locating pins on the bearings are in their slots, grease the labyrinth seals and the end seals, apply a thin coat of sealer to the crankcase halves, etc.
- crank case bolts 8mm - 17 to 18 ft.lb. 10mm- 23 to 25 - cylinder fastening nuts 24 to 28 - cylinder head bolts 8mm - 17 to 18 10mm- 24 to 26 - cylinder head cover bolts not listed
I expect that all the bolts would be tightened from the center of the
engine alternating sides and working my way toward the ends. - YES
