Anyone put the trd shocks and struts on are the stiffer? Don't want to lower it with the springs but want to control body sway without lowering. Anyideas?

 

the TRD springs help a bit, get yourself the progress rear sway bar, that will help a great deal. i think its 175 bucks....

 

well to want you gotta give you know

go to www.partshippers.com

they have some nice chassis parts to stiffen up the ride

I have the TRD springs, OEM shocks and struts, and a progress RSB. I was looking for something stiffer then stock, and I have it with the combination I have now. If I had the money I would pick up the TRD shocks and struts though.

When I test drove the xB, it had the TRD suspension and I believe the hotchkis RSB. That was definately the selling point, was a little disappointed when I found out how much it cost from the dealer. So I am doing it myself slowly. At this point I think I've spent

$125 on the springs (USED)
$140 on the RSB (NEW)
$265 Total

The labor I couldn't tell you about cause my co-workers helped me out, but I will tell you the springs shouldn't take more then a good 30 minutes at a shop, and about 10 minutes at a shop. Either that or the mechanics I work with are extremely fast. . .ha ha ha.

 

I have tanabe springs resting on TRD struts and stock rear shocks. The front is definatly very very stiff.
