And I'm not talking about Halloween trick or treat candy.

Just got done ordering my TRD lowering Springs, Rear Sway Bar and Strut Brace. Oh my goodness can't wait.

I need a manual to help with the spring install. Does the nation prefer Chiltons or Haynes? After a month or so I'll get my rims and tires.

00602-48130-019 Lowering Springs $199.53
00602-53607-101 Front Strut Brace $167.85
00602-48800-101 Rear Sway Bar $158.62
All from toyotaparts4u.com.

I'm sooooo gellin.

PS -I'll be sure to post DIY Gen5 pics.

you're installing aftermarket springs w/ oem shocks?

wouldn't that wear out the shocks faster?

Haynes. it doesn't explain as much as you want, but it does more than Chilton's.

hey bro, get yourself a factory repair manual and save yourself the hassle of trying to figure out the 5 steps that haynes left out in the middle of an install. Haynes has left me in the dark on many an install. You got yourself some sweet parts.

NP man just a couple of min. of searching. I actually got it off a thread over at www.solaraguy.com

yeah get a factory one, may be alittle pricey but it will help you out with more then one thing

Erbe · 10-20-2004, 01:17 PM

the haynes is better...again...you should get struts with your springs cus i doubt those OEM ones are gonna take the pressure
