Can someone help me with torque specs (from 98-00 FSM)?

    Does anyone have pdf of 1998-2000 Tacoma factory service manual? Or can someone check some torque specs for me. I am re-attaching my non-ADD front differential tube to the differential. Some people have said it's 58 ft-lb for the ADD diff tube (E-torx bolts) and 77 ft-lb for the non-ADD diff tube (Hex bolts). But I also downloaded a 1996 Tacoma factory service manual which specifies 58 ft-lb for the ADD and non-ADD diff tubes. So can anyone help me out? The torque specs I'm looking for are located in the "Suspension and Axle - Front Differential" chapter under "Install differential tube to differential". The attached photo is from the 1996 FSM on page SA-59.

    I attached (3) links I found for FSM pdfs, but the 1998-2000 Tacoma one does not work for any of them.

    Thank you. That's the diagram I needed to see. Do you think you could also attach the text portion that is similar to the photo I provided above? It's in the "Reassembly" section under "Install differential tube to differential". I want to see how much the assembly process differs from the 95-97 FSM. Thanks.
