Default Front Suspension, LBJ, Caster Arm, LCA, UCA Torque Spec

Hello CL!

I've been searching high and low for all of the torque specs since I'm currently tackling the following on my '02 GS430.

Struts (front and rear)
Outer Tie Rod (Front)
Lower Ball Joint (Front)
Stablizer Sway Bar Link (Front)
Caster Arm (No 2 Lower Suspension Arm)
Brake Caliper
Brake Caliper Torque Plate
Rotors

Attached PDF that includes all torque specifications for everything you would need to handle a job like this. The next person no longer needs to read through dozens of threads to get the torque specs.

I hear you but I don't do a lot of work on my own cars because of time constraints...this time around the type of work was within my "abilities" and was justifiable on the cost savings.
