So I swapped out the rear diff cover yesterday. All was going well aside of a failed torque wrench. I overtightened a bolt and it snapped. I was fortunate enough that I was able to back out the broken end.
When I put another bolt in and tighten, I starts to get tight and slips a little. So the threads are stripped. The other 11 bolts went in just fine and are good and tight. There are no leaks. Everything seems fine.
That said, this is my 4 month old Rubicon and I am stressing out about this. Logic tells me that it should be fine, but what do you all think?
