bump!

Have you taken it over to the guys at Hotchkis yet? I'm interested in what they have to say.

Any chance it's something similar to what happened with me and my funny noise?

Goin to Hotchkis tomorrow morning, i'll see what they say. As for Rabid_Lemming, your problem does sound very similar to one of the problems i currently have. I'll see what hotchkis can do tomorrow, i'm just hoping it's not something else because i don't know where to go. (Toyota is gonna say they won't warranty me because of my TRD springs or bars, or theyre gonna lie like last time and rip me off)

i call shenanigans on that toyota dealership.

secondly, go to any other toyota place and you should be good with the TRD springs, if that the problem. They are trd.

My friends actually figured out what was wrong with mine. Did you check the top of the strut tower?

Ok well, turns out the creaking and popping was cuz the bar is defective. They gave me the new bar that someone else was talkin about on here. It has like some stoppers on it to keep it from moving because that was the main problem. Met with John Hotchkis and he personally worked on my car. Great guys at Hotchkis, very friendly and they gave me a cool hat. Car feels much better now, but steering is still sorta sloppy. I think i may need a reallignment. Also, there are still some creaking sounds in the back of the car. I dunno what that is but they looked at my back bar and everything was fine so. In terms of sway bar performance, theyre as best as they can be, but the rest of the problems still remain.
