Get S-techs.

HATED DF210's
TRD was not low enough.

I installed them in 45min, used an offset wretch box wrench, no need to take off wipers.

X2...What's wrong with the DF's? I have driven with the TRD's and now I'm on the DF's...The TRD's were not bad springs like you said, just not low enough...But the DF's easily ride better than the TRD's hands down...Plus you get a much better drop...Of course, this is my own personal opinion ...

not to mention the S-Techs have, I believe, the exact spring rate as DF's...only difference being the fronts drop the full 2.2, rather than 1.9 like the DF's lol

maybe mr. sicknezzzzzzzzzzzzzz doesn't like the even ride height front to back? haha

You makin fun of my uneven ride height trd? =O, lol na, never played with the s-techs, but I definitly did like the ride of TRDs better than DF210s. Regardless to each their own, although i dont see why youd work harder with a box wrench under the cowl instead of unbolting the 5 10mm bolts and freeing up infinite amounts of space... but thats just me...

Yea I think if I would have known the S-Techs dropped the vehicle the same height front and back as opposed to the DF's which drop the rear a little lower, I might have went with the S-techs too...Oh well, I guess I will just have to wait for Raceland...

They did respond to my email that they are still planning on making them for the xD but no ETA

I was having trouble pulling off the wiper arm after unbolting it. so I got impatient and decided "hell..I'll just do it with this stuff on."

mistakez :D haha
