Progress vs. TRD Sway bars
i'm pretty sure this topic has been discussed in a fair amount of detail in previous posts. But just in case you missed it...
The TRD is a bit milder than the progress. You can't really tell that its there unless you put it to the 'race' setting. The race setting seems to give a nice balance between driveability and performance.
The progress bar comes with end links, while the TRD one does not. Unless your planning to do some hardcore driving, the stock ones SHOULD be ok. It is a little more performance oriented than the TRD.
Both are good products in my opinion, and people will argue for both of them. In my opinion, it all comes down to how much you want to sacrifice for performance.

Go with trd for a dd. If you are looking for something more aggressive, spend you money on a used set of hotchkis sways. A set of those used is almost the same price as a new progress rear sway and would be 100x better...
Not trying to thread jack, but here's the link where I picked up my Progress Rear Sway...

i just picked up the progress and am hoping to install it tonight... we'll see. But from what ive heard, and the info posted on the suspension 101 sticky, they are both 22mm thick, but progress is solid and has 3 settings while trd is hollow and only has 2. Once i get it in, ill let you guys know if i feel a difference between the two.
any of you guys running the progress rear sway have instructions on how to install the end links? I was working on it tonight, but want to be sure i did it right. box didnt come with instructions. also, if you guys could include a picture of how your links look while connected id much appreciate it.
Thanks
