you dont need a strut bar, you dont need sway bars, all you need is the coilovers if you want them

All the other stuff is extra to help handling

lol, if you think trd's are bad, then you will have a problem with just about any coilovers

alright guys, this thread is plentttty long enough so im going to go ahead and edit the first post to make this the "official" raceland coilovers thread.

i havent really kept up with this thread until lately.

so if you guys make me a list of FAQ's AND answers, i will be more than happy to edit the OP so that you dont have people asking the same question 2 or 3 times per page.

FAQ #1: How do Raceland coilovers ride compared to springs with stock struts/shocks?
A: Stiff but not bumpy, in my opinion better than springs with stock struts/shocks.


let the FAQ's begin! lol

^^ i think a better wording for that question goes something like this:

q: are these direct bolt on or will i have to use a few stock pieces?
a: yes, the stock strut/shock tops hats will need to be used
