Is the TRD rear sway bar a worthwhile upgrade?

Does anyone know how much a dealer/mechanic would charge to do this install? 1 hour minimum labor charge?

I'd love to do this myself someday but as it is I'd have to buy a jack, stands, and a torque wrench which probably adds up to more than the 1 hour labor charge.

I paid the mechanic $18. Anything more than that and you're getting ripped off IMHO. It took them 5-10 mins tops.

i don't know if you need all that to be honest... i installed a driveshaft on a bronco with nothing special (that's a tad redneck)-- but don't be afraid to get under there! :D

Thanks for the info! When I finally get my Yaris I'll take a look under the car and see if it seems feasible for me.

Don't be timid. I installed mine on the driveway in 20 minutes (including collecting the tools and clean-up afterward. A couple spanners is adequate. A socket set and two spanners even faster. You likely won't even need to lift the car unless you're fat like me. I didn't even remove the wheels although it would have been slightly easier if I had.
