TRD lowering spring ?


The trd website says it lowers it from 1-1.5 inches. Is it closer to 1 or 1.5?

If I wanted to lower my box 2" what springs should I do for that?

Do the trd's settle with time and how much if they do?

Will the tanabe settle lower than 2" overtime?

You posted another topic about living were you have to deal with snow right? How many inches of snow are we talking about?

If its alot of snow I'd just stick with TRD springs.

I live in Iowa, so we can get a lot of snow. When I do lower my box I will get the TRD's because of the snow, and the wife doesn't want me to lower it anyways.

Driving last night I thought the box drove pretty rough. So, between the TRD's & Tanabe NF210's, which will have the better ride & price?

My TRDs ride like stock but I have never ridden in a box with NF210's. I think the ride in the box is really smooth but then again I spend 8 hours a day in a rough ass truck.
