    I'm installing my new Wheelers AAL's today and the instructions say once installed torque U-bolts to factory spec. Anyone have that number for me? Thanks.

    Bilstein 5100's on all four corners. Front set @ 0 with OME 883x coils. Alcon leaf springs. Viper Alarm. Wet Okole seat covers. WeatherTech Floor liners front and back. Oem Toyota chrome exhaust tip. ARE Shell. America Outlaw Wheels.
    If its a 2nd gen factory specs state 37 ft. lbs of torque. But the consensus around here is that's a type o and it should be 73 ft. lbs. I have mine set to 70 ft.lbs. And have had no problems.
