          I know! What worries me though is, now that I know the torque, what will I have forgotten?

                  Look for Drive Shaft Retaining Nuts in your manual.

                    Cheers Nev. I thought they were captive bolts/nuts as there's a bolt head on the back of the flange. That's 2 things I've learned from this one thread

                      Proper name is Bolt, Serration. I suppose they have a hex head in case they strip the splines. Another reason which I think they may be splined is to maintain proper alignment.
