TRD sway bar-- overall ride

I down sized from 1 ton duallys with sway bars and with this tundra, I do like the ride, but still think I can use a sway bar. Is the general consensus
that the overall ride is still improved with the SB. Seems like the ride would be the same on the interstates except for potholes.

Ride is definitely improved. There is a thread floating around here with lots of people documenting their likes of the sway bar.

I put one one like 2 days after i bought the truck there was a big change on corners, but for interstate diving i cant say i really noticed any change at all. Isent a sway bar mainly to reduce body roll in corners any way? I had no idea it was to help the "ride" out as well for interstate travel any ways for the price it was well worth it in my mind.

Yea, I just meant it would not would not make the interstate ride rougher unless there was pot holes anyway. Just really really like the TDR ride.
I was in a tundra test driving and turning out of the parking lot I said to the salesman no way, these have way to much body roll and thats when he mentioned it was not the TDR package.

With the TRD Sway Bar, the truck will handle better, but I haven't noticed any change in the "ride". It does help the truck corner better, some have described it as being on rails. I was very happy and impressed after doing this mod. I installed it myself in under an hour. Also, the TRD package does not include the sway bar.

I'll buy it!

Hello everyone, I have been a member for a bit. This is my first post. I have a 08 crew max 4x4 Ltd. natblu. This is a great site with a wealth of information.

If the sway bar is still available I would like to buy it at the asking price.

Thanks

Can someone tell me how to change my user name. I accidently put a l in my name.
