Question

Anyone know if the TRD STB will fit on top of the Teins and how many pounds to torque it to?
Thanks.

Puck - I am sure they will fit on top of the Teins . If memory is correct. A member with the Tein setup will help you further.

As for the TRD stb its 35 nm . There was a thread in the suspension section that i had asked the same question. But its got sucked up by a black hole

Yes they do fit as I am running Teins HA's with the TRD strutbar. There is a little hole in the STB for using your Tein tool to allow for adjusting the damping on the coil-overs. Saves a lot of time.

Hope that helps...

Thanks mkilty.
Have you guys actually changed settings on your Teins?
Is it very difficult?

I don't changed the height but I do with the damping. All you do is use the little green screwdriver that comes with the Tein's and turn it left for stronger damping or right for softer damping.

Even changing the height of your shocks is easy as the Tein's have two wrenches for that purpose.

Have fun....
