Poly Bushings
I'm in the process of ordering all new suspension parts for my 3rd gen runner (120k miles) and have read a couple posts here and there about using poly bushings. I figured my mechanic buddy and I will be hackin around we might as well replace some bushings if need be. He mentioned that once the poly bushings go in I might lose a nice ride and get a harsh ride instead. Anyone have any experience with this? I have a stock sway bar...should I get a larger one? I'm ordering all the TRD Tundra parts for a 2.5" lift. Thanks.

Poly bushings should give you a better ride after you replace them. I replaced my swaybar bushings about a year ago on my Taco and the difference was night and day.

It will make the ride a bit tighter and stiffer, but not necessarily harsh. It will greatly improve handling and responsiveness.
Does Energy Suspension make a full kit for Tacos? I've been thinking of doing this as well.
