Default torque specs for trans pan?
What are the torque specs for the trans pan on a 99 Ram? I saw the DIY and it said 25ft lbs. I think I just broke a bolt doing 25ft lbs

Any idea how to get the broken bolt out or how much a shop would charge to do that?

150 inch lbs is 12.5 ft lbs...

So around 13 would be correct. 25 FT LBS is crazy on a pan!

THINK POSITIVE!!

the pan is still OFF...hopefully the bolt has not bottomed this will have the threaded portion "loose" .... and pliers can get a bite on it OR using a pick rotate it out...

good luck

couldn't get the bolt out. I drove it around the block and let it idle for about 30 mins and it isn't leaking yet. I will keep an eye on it until I can take it a shop.

do you have the chrysler gasket thats plastic with rubber on both sides? if you do then it'll probably hold the fluid fine until you get that bolt out.
