Oh and thanks for the offer, but I'm probably going to buy some flat universal ones probably after popping these ones out (apparently the size of the rota caps are 63mm?)
Yep you got it, I think the manual states 89 lb-ft but 90 is fine. Torque wrenches can get expensive but the one from Harbor Freight works great for occasional garage use. Look for the 1/2" drive click type, you might need a 1/2" socket size that fits your spline drive key, I think it's a 19mm but I'm not sure... 1/2" refers to the square connector on the wrench. The 3/8 wrench doesn't go to high enough torque.
