2002 trap door torque spec
I just can't find the specs for the trap door on my RK. Last time I looked online I got the wrong spec for my oil pan and snapped a bolt. Any help is awesome thank you

Note this is for a big twin, since you said RK. This is the Sportster section. This is from a 2004 model, but it should be the same transmission:
Transmission Side Door
5/16" screws: 13-16 ft*lbs
1/4" screws: 84-108 in*lbs
There is also a torque sequence for these six bolts to prevent distortion.

How lame is the FSM Pounds-Feet and Pounds-inch. Yet the measurements are almost the same.
10-18 foot/pounds is 120-212 inch/pounds
84-108 inch/pounds is 7-9 foot/pounds. Ok, I get it you might not want to use a big torque wrench, but this is just past hand tight!!!
Why not just pick one, or the other to list torque values. So lame. No wonder people snap off bolts.
