Hey all, Im beginning the install for the 26 spline and i have a few questions.

#1 ive never had to use one before, but i have a snap on dial indicator that is in .0005 incraments....how in the blazes do i read it. Im missing why its labeled 0 5 10 and 15 if its in .0005 incriments. ( yes im an idiot when it comes to precision tools)

(this is the one that i have)

Snap on Long Range Dial Test Indicator Kit GA3640 "New" | eBay



#2 What is the torque spec for the front plate bolts on the transmission

#3 What is the range of play for the input shaft. Im seeing .002, .0005, .005, ect listed in my searches.

and other than end play and replacing the retainer sleeve, any other wild cards i need to worry about with this? Thanks!

Thanks!
