    Just had the E02 done. I am still waiting the get the truck back at the moment. I had the harsh ride TSB done back in 2010 and the service guy told me the 4 pack leaf springs where put on. Anything specific I need to look for?
    Also, had the frame inspected and a drain and fill on the trans... Oh, and they wanted $15 to change my license plate bulb. I passed.. I pretty sure I can figure that one out..


    So I thought I go the EO2 done. The service adviser came out to the lobby and told me to soon. When I went to check out he told me because I had the harsh ride tsb done they needed to order a a kit and they are on back order.

    Thanks for posting the pdf. I'm doubting their torque spec on the U-bolts. They have it at 37 ft/lbs. I think that was supposed to be 73 ft/lbs. Having them under torqued will cause major axle wrap every time you release the brakes and hit the gas.

    had the E02 recall done 2 days ago...
    the work was finally done nicely. (i measured height before and after, at wheel wells and lost 5/8")
    went to dealership March 31st, they ordered part incorrectly which took a month and a half to order the correct part...
    finally because of some unknown Toyota (couldn't find their butts with both hands) problems...
    parts finally arrived (nearly 4 months start to finish)
    but, i am content... took 3ish hours at the dealership for the actual work.
    not counting the hours of telephone conversations getting them to locate and ship the correct parts...
    GOTTA' LOVE THE DEALERS LACK OF CARING...

    I tried and was denied, but I had a previous service request for replacing the leafs where they "determined" the fault to be caused by the AAL. Despite the fact that the physics did not allow for the AAL to cause the type of damage, they still claimed that was the issue. So YMMV.
