    My google-Fu did not return solid results.

    Does anyone know the OEM 2 bolts size and length for the front differential ?
    Also, is there a torque spec for those two , besides "pretty effin tight!" ???

    I currently have a differential drop on my 17 Tundra with a 3” lift.
    I'm not sure what kit it is as it was on it when I bought it.

    I’m working towards getting it back to stock-ish height and removing the differential spacers and skid plate spacers. But, I don’t have any of the original hardware.

    Yes, I could always pull it out and subtract the spacer for length, just trying to get it all prior to disassembly. I've had to many failed attempts and Murphys law with super easy mods.

    also checked with CoolSprings and Sparks parts but didn’t find it.

    C4322B93-6D50-4E49-9FFE-D028AEE49ED6.jpg Well that took a lot of digging, but I’m 99% sure this is it, just in case anyone needs it in the future. Still don’t have the torque specs for it, if anyone knows -please add.

    From the 2015 SRM (Same diagram, but with service torques): Torque for the bolt you identified as 90105-A0188 is 83 ft-lbs.

    Are you able to post the diagram of the rear diff with torque specs? I'm planning on installing a master rebuild along with a powertrax grip pro. Thanks.
