    Very interesting. I was misinformed on the purpose of the reservoir.

    Just watched a pretty neat explanation video though.

    They are there to be able to adjust it for what ever kind of offroadi you do but mostly for high speed applications

    I found the Tundra spec is 74. Further supports the 37 should be 73....

    Yes but designed for extreme offloading or were you would need it for a certain kind of ride. If you have a dedicated rig.

    Rear has 1.5 inch Toytec blocks but I hate it and will be upgrading to a Dakar leaf spring kit as soon as I can afford to do so. With the new steel rear bumper my leaf springs are almost flat with no arch because of the blocks and it stresses me out lol

    Toyota torque spec is for stock leafs and stock u bolts. Most of us have after market leafs and bigger u bolts. Therefore more torque is required
