Sup guys! Does anybody know how much it would cost to install the Hotchkis strut bar and TRD rear sway bar at the dealership? Or should I just install it myself? I never installed a strut bar and a rear sway bar before...is it easy or difficult to do? How long is it to install both? Is it going to void any warranty if I install it myself? Sorry for asking too many questions.

You should install it yourself. The sway bar install and strut bar are rather easy to install. You should search this site for "How-To's" Im sure there are a couple of them floating around. It will save you from wasting your money at a dealer. Good Luck!...

remember to get the car aligned after the TRD install

i installed the hotchkis in about 15 minutes...sways are much easier in the rear than in the front...def do it yourself if u got some tools...and a lift

Thanks guys! I'm leaning to doing it myself since I know dealerships can be pricey. Plus, I can purchase the strut bar and sway at a cheaper price somewhere else rather than at the dealers.

it is a 45 min job for both, but remember when you do the sway to drop the exhaust from the hanger it makes it easier to get it in

You DON'T need to get an alignment after installing the rear sway bar or front STRUT bar... You DO however need an alignment if you lower your car with TRD SPRINGS, or any springs for that matter!
