    So I had one of my bolts fall out of my Taco today, passenger side LBJ knuckle bolt that attaches to the bottom of the spindle. Recently replaced most parts in the front end so I'm thinking I must not have torqued it enough. Wondering if anyone knows what the bolts specs are trying. Toyota has to order some in and they wont tell me the bolt size

    When you do replace them, put some red loctite on them.

    Might not have seated all the way, also they are famous for cross threading, check the threads to see if they are FUBAR.

    Toyota only bolt, or at least I couldn't find it anywhere else when one of mine came out. Only took a day to get.
