    always the studs first. if you tighten the sides first, you might not get full pull down on the cap

    I was also taught that when loosening,always loosen bolts then studs. You also want to make sure that you tighten 3/8 bolts in rear main after cap is torqued, and always loosen those bolts before you loosen cap.
