First, thanks for the link to the CV Boot Replacement write-up on
AudiWorld - very nice.

The question is, what is the proper torque when replacing the axel bolt?

The write-up says 85 Ft/Lbs plus 1/2 a turn (180 deg).  Mr. Bentley
says 148 Ft/Lbs plus 1/4 turn (90 deg).  Seems like quite a
discrepancy.  What does the list say?

PS Having trouble finding the triple square sockets needed to remove
the half shaft.  Anyone know of a FLAPS that carries them?
