The Torque Spec. Guide

Can anybody explain why the torque spec for the Front Stabilizer Bar Bracket is 30ft/lb in the original PDF on the post compared to 37ft/lb as found here? http://www.ttguide.net/front_stabilizer_bar-1407.html. Seeing the discrepancy here makes me wonder which is correct?

 

The link you made reference to is for 2015-2018 model years.

 

i thought about that initially, but second gen runs up to 2015 as well so wouldn’t the new torque sheet be for 2016-current?

 

I don't know what changes they may have made on the sway bar mount. Possible larger bolt or mounting hardware.

 

Thank you once again for this wonderful torque spec guide, got me through a complete suspension upgrade!

 

Thank you so much for this! I used these diagrams exclusively today while installing a suspension lift. I printed off the pages I needed, but there will be many more uses for this info. I appreciate it!

 

You might want to double check here, specifically post #10. Some of the numbers seem different between 2nd gen / 3rd gen.

OK, thank you. Checking now.

 

Are you specifically looking at the toe and camber adjust cam torque specs? I see a big increase from 100 to 135 lbs. from gen 2 to gen 3. Anything else? Also, where can I get copies of these for gen 3 torque specs? Toyota dealership or online? Thank you.

 

That was the big one that caught my eye. The others didn’t look familiar, but I didn’t check. I would look at them all.

 

Thanks for all the great data here!

 

on page 1 of this thread under rear suspension components correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like the torque called out for the u-bolts is 37ft lbs. wtf? I thought it was around 90ft lbs.

 

For the oem U-bolts.....yes......for the aftermarket ones no. The oem ubolt is thinner and the nut plate is mildly adequate......I have the Wheelers U-bolt flip kit and the U-bolts are 1.5x thicker and it has a 1/4" steel plate for the nuts.

 

Thanks, didn't realized the oem ones were that much thinner (they were only on the truck for a month.)

 

Man I was thinking the same thing. I torqued my Deaver springs to 100 ft/lbs, to see 37 was concerning. On the Deaver springs it states their required torque.

 

Great stuff subd for a future project!

 

Great info. Thanks for the time and effort you put into making this available

 

Very helpful find! Download and loading are fine here...

 

Thank you for all your hard work!

 

Thanks for putting this all in one place.
