i was torqueing down my flywheel bolts and checked the site for the 4.0 v6 it says 75-85 wen i got to 55 the stretch bolts my local ford dealer sold me twisted in half so i called them talked to a mechanic and he sed 50 is really pushin it but 45 is fine, so idk if the site info is wrong but thaught id let u guys no
 
Shop manual calls for 54-67 lbs-ft. Did the bolts twist in half or snap? Soft bolts will twist, hardened ones snap, I'd get another opion.
