Suspension Options?

This thread was resurrected from the grave. I will add to the pile.

@DickyDck How are the cusco sway bar?

I had the Toyota TRD bottom member brace frame installed. And the overall chassis sway felt much smoother. The vehicle was more confident in cornering and even in bumps. I could actually feel the chassis stiffen. It added some weight to the vehicle however. Source: PRIUS TRD PARTS | TRD - Toyota TRD Official parts. I have not tried the active front and rear damper. Although that does sound promising.

@kenmce I personally prefer Toyota TRD parts from Japan. They are reasonably priced and the fit is perfect at least for the Toyota Prime. The only issue is translating the instructions from Japanese to English. I use Google Translate PDF to help with that.

For the Rav4 the parts are easier to get from a Toyota USA dealer. You can also browse the Toyota Japan TRD site from the link above to browse for any TRD Exclusive parts you like. They will fit exactly because Toyota TRD parts are OEM.

 

heya! sorry for being MIA for so long, work and everything. I haven't installed them yet, sitting in my garage. I did just get my chargepoint homeflex installed today for the prius. I plan to do before and after testing with the stock sway bars and the new ones. Wonder why nobody in the US carries these sway bars, had to have them imported which took forever!

 

Awesome! Should be a quick weekend job! Just got get to it ! And be sure to use the tires as fail safe while working under the car!

Hybrid Pit in Southern California does a lot of importing from Japan. I often check them first to look at parts. Some smalller electronic parts I search on amazon.co.jp
