I bought my IRS rear end kit from Forte. Hubs and spindles included but did not have fasteners to connect them. Need 8 and not sure what I need. Anyone privy?

Every set I ever bought came with the fasteners in the box. Call him and ask. They are Ford specific.

I got hubs and spindles also from Forte and the hardware was in one of the hub boxes.

I feel like such a moron. I have the bolts. I was looking for socket head bolts because of the picture in the manual… I looked at the correct ones 100 times and thought… those bolts are WAY too large…. Anyone know the torque spec?

Those torque to 98 ft-lbs, as described on page 87 of the rev 5G of the manual. Here’s the torque chart for the rest of the IRS.
I just went through the IRS 2 weeks ago.
