Hello, im just wondering how long you people with s techs last with stock shocks? because my friend whos a TL show boy keeps telling me my shocks are gonna blow fast and stuff because s techs drop to much... so i wanted to ask you guys to see how long it lasted the SCIONLIFE members.

i had 40k miles on the stock shocks but that was with the hotchkis drop which is somewhat similar to the stech drop. my shocks where completely blown after 40k

olo_olo

i have mine on for awhile now and still runnin like a champ

jonmike06

i got about close to 80k on the stock shocks w/s-tech.... which finally gave out on me a month ago,they still ride smooth even though they blown... i just got my tokico's in today sono more blown shocks

hypothesis

very helpful as i was going to ask the same question about H-techs, but it should be about the same or maybe more being that H-Techs dont drop as much as the S-techs..thank u

stech installed 1k after bought
22k+ and still running [in colorado, THE worse road conditions ever]

I'm on Tanabe DF210's which are one of the lower spring sets and i'm at 20K doin fine

When i bought my scion it had Zenn springs, which are pretty low. The person I bought it from had the spring on for around 12,000 miles and the stock shocks were fine.
I did replace them and noticed a smoother ride, but as long as you don't hit at major holes/bumps you should be ok for a while.

i have the trd shocks with the hotchkis drop will the trd shocks last longer than the stock ones?

mitchelltc1

I think my shocks are blown... At least in the back on H-techs about 20K miles... 47k total miles... I don't know, doesn't seem to be any oil at the bottom of the shock, but it sounds rattley on one side and squeeky on the other...

i had my stock shocks on for about 46k miles and the stechs on the stockers for about the the last 30k miles without a problem. switched over to tein super streets this pass weekend

Yes, definitely.

They're designed for lower springs.
