2013 GS350 AWD spring replacement
Last time I did a spring job, I had the factory manual handy, which was great for the procedure and the torque specs.
Now that Lexus has decided we can't have the books, it's not so easy.
I did find JeffTsai's DIY spring thread, but it doesn't have the torque specs (and his was RWD).
Does anyone have access to the manual pages for the front and rear suspension that could run off a pdf?
I'm planning to do a Tanabe set, and I'd feel much more comfortable with everything handy.

I ordered a Service Manual CD on eBay.
(Then I had to figure out how to even read a CD since none of the machines I built in the last eight years has a ROM drive in it.)

Reviews were good, so I figured $60 was worth a shot.
How does what I posted compare to what you see in TIS?
Is it the same?

I love Amazon Warehouse Deals.
To date I've gotten Sonos components that were open box for ~30% off and tons of other stuff.
I’ve had the springs wishlisted for weeks, and I just saw a lower price option that was not there an hour earlier.
So this is happening...

Springs came: box wasn't damaged, no damage to springs, instructions and stickers in box, had definitely been bought and returned.
Since I saved money on the springs, I splurged on a legit spring compressor.
