Im using them with TRD springs. I got the back ones put in today. Wasnt as bad as i thought. Just 4 bolts to remove back seat and then all the panels just pop off to gain acess to the shock bolts.

After removing the factory shocks i compressed them and set them side by side to see the roubound. One went up very slowly and the other just stayed there didnt move at all. That explains why im rubbing a bit on one side cause that shock is doing absolutely nothing. Not even 30k miles and already blown shocks. Makes me wish i just put in tokikos when i did the springs in the first place.

After taking it for a test drive i can feel a immediate difference. Corners now amazingly well with the rear stiffend up and going over speed bumps the rear end dosnt want to bottom out now. Coming to stops the front end dosnt seem to dip as much and feels like it stops quicker as a result.

I cant wait to get the fronts in but i will have to leave that for next week.
