Question about TRD Lowering Spring - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

aznianthorpejr · 01-04-2009, 01:35 PM

So I have a 2007 LE and I changed my springs to TRD Lowering Springs. I dont like it anymore. My back keeps on hitting the ground. Should I just take out my back TRD Springs and install my stock ones? or is that a totally bad idea and reinstall all my stock springs?

?
ur back shouldn't hit the ground at all... somethings not wrong w/ the springs. something's wrong a/ the bushings, the actual install, or etc. but not the springs...

JW if its even good to have TRD springs in the front and Stock LE springs in the back?

yeah. i mean.. as long as u don't track your car. you're fine. if I were you, I'd get the urethane cushion. just jack up your car, and place it into the rear spring.

install it and don't worry. your car and suspension will be fine w/ the TRD springs.

What exactly do you mean with that? bottoming out the springs, hitting the road with the bumper...? I am with Peach, sounds more like a problem of the install...or how you drive.

I never bottomed out my TRD springs and my body kit only hit the ground once when I was going out of one of these steep incline parking lots with passengers in the back. I did scratch my front lip much more frequently due to the larger overhang compared to the back.
