    Ignoring what is considered in spec (because that spec is based on stock wheels, tires, ucas, and coilovers) people generally want more caster to accommodate larger tires. Caster is the forward and backwards positioning of the wheel, so at 3 caster the wheel is closer to the front of the wheel well than it is when in stock spec, which is good when you're running big tires. I dont think you can get much outside of the toyota spec caster range without changing the ucas, so unless you plan to do that another alignment is probably unnecessary, unless of course you notice pulling or vibration or uneven tire wear with your current alignment.

    I recently painted mine silver and was looking for torque specs. Best I found was 43 for the tundra tow hooks. So I torqued mine to 43
