    Does anyone know what size axle came in the 2004 tacomas? Im pretty sure its an 8" rear but not 100% sure. Also does anyone know what the torque specs are for the third member bolts?

    Thanks in advance

    If you have a locker/TRD Off Road edition then it's an 8"

    If you don't have a locker then it's an 8.4"

    Here are the torque specs attached. Should be the last page:
