Does anyone have an 07 manual or is that where you got your info, Toxarch?
Thanks again.

which u-bolts are you talking about? the airbag u-bolt spec is in the instructions. if you removed the u-bolts that hold the axle to the leaf springs to take off the bump stops, i'd go with the spec a toyota mechanic cited for those.
