Bilstein/Toyota Torque Discrepancy

Mounting the 5160 on my 3rd gen 2018.

From the Bilstein instructions:



From the Tacoma service manual dated for vehicles beginning in 2016:



Are we going with Toyota on this one? I'm assuming this is the correct service manual for my truck, but I downloaded it here, so who knows. From what I've read, the torque spec on the 2nd gen was indeed 72ft-lbf. Are the Bilstein directions outdated in that respect?

 

Any time there's a conflict like this, I go with what the service manual says (Toyota should know their vehicle best, so they say).

That said, lower shock bolts are not exactly something super-critical (not like cylinder head bolts would be). Assuming you're handy with a wrench, torque them to whatever feels good & tight.

 

If you’re conflicted just split the difference.
