I took my TRDs to my shop in the box, didnt prep anything for them, took them a little over 3 hours I think.

doing it on my driveway would've taken about 3-4 hours but we had one tough bolt that wouldn't come off for a LONGGGGGGG TIME. ended up bringing it to a friends place and using his impact wrench to loosen, then bring it back to my house to finish.

Took me and my friend about 4 hours because we are idiots...

Seriously 3 hours getting the first one on.
Then the other hour for the 3 others haha.
Stupid guy thought you only have 1 side of a spring compressor...It almost didn't end well.

did mine at home in the garage, but i spaced it out over 2 days, the rear first then the front, but all in all it took about 2 hours with manual spring compressors
