    You have a 2010, did you get that front passenger side "window weld" thing fixed as per the TSB? That is supposed to be a bad rattler.

    just wondering, since most of us has the TRD springs installed, will the stock shocks and struts hold up ? or would it be better if we changed the suspension ? I was looking into the TRD sportivo, anyone know much about it ?

    thanks

    I think it will wear the stock shocks prematurely.. But I think it all depends on how hard you will drive it..
