eBay Motors: EASY MOD*2004-2008 Prius*TOURING/SPORT TUNED SUSPENSION (item 380021650817 end time May-02-08 13:59:20 PDT)
Odd first post, I know, but those are the pieces that are put into pretty much every car's suspension when they are shipped from the factory to reduce suspension travel. Some cars have these after purchase due to an improper PDI and the ride quality usually suffers badly and it can adversely affect the way the suspension breaks in. I can't believe someone would sell these on ebay. I'm not sure if this was posted as a joke, I would guess it was, so if it was I'm sorry for pointing out the obvious.
The title of this thread defiantly got my attention... The rubber inserts look like they would be a safety hazard. Has anyone bought them and put them on their car?
In my opinion that wouldn't be a good idea. These things make the car ride rough, the suspension unpredictable and adversely affect suspension wear/break-in (at least these were some of the comments I've heard from other cars that have had these mistakenly left in). Remember these are only put in cars while they are being transported and shouldn't actually be driven with them on there. Big safety hazard in my book.
Haha, I missed that. Nice! I'm guessing the hydraulics kit and the fake turbo blow-off sound mods are next.
sorry to confuse people with the title. . . i like to read about "performance" ideas and upgrades, but this one is such a joke, i had to post it for laughs. . . . . .hope no one bought them. . .
Please, don't anyone fall for this scam on this board. Just another example of some fool trying to rip people off.
