So I was driving my car the other day and noticed a nice dribble feeling like my car was a basketball; long behold my front strut is *ss out. So basically I am getting a new one and I need advice. I am already getting a monroe sensatrac to replace it. I am curently on df's but want to change to trd.....gues I should have done it sooner.
My question: should I also get trd shocks and struts along with the springs?
I already blew one out im guessing its just a matter of time before the other one goes....
Whats the best place to buy them; my thoughts are trdsparks.com unless anyone else has a brighter idea. And I know someone is going to ask about getting tanabe nf's.....my thoughts are that I can't wait till the next shipment comes out which seems to be october
appreciate feedback

| Do you not like how low the Df's are? I would just replace the shocks with aftermarket ones like monroe... |

My rears are blown and I'm on TRDs & I'm at 12k miles. Mine are blown because I love to take those corners hard after my TRD spring/sway bar install.
Anyone know when after market shocks will be out? TRD are way too expensive. |

What does a blown shock mean? No suspension travel?
I am so noob at this, seems like a blown shock can still function? |
