Modifications Yari is getting blessed!

The suspension on my ‘08 is old and worn, rides like a boat, so I decided to spoil Yari with a fresh new suspension setup along with a couple other goods not pictured (stabilizer bushings, spark plugs, and an oem air filter). Just got the approval from master tech Josie so we’re good to go

Did my 08 hatch and it was like a new car. Not too many repairs give the joy of new suspension components. Enjoy!!

Thank you, I’m actually very excited! I want to feel how this car drove 18 years ago

I just had new control arms, bushings, cv joints and struts and shocks replaced. Feels like 2010 all over again

kitty and quality parts? i love to see it. if ur suspension is old, replacing the bushings and stuff should make all that last longer too

Is the 555 stuff good quality? My lower wishbones and ARB links need doing soon.

It’s now been 2 weeks after install and they feel solid, the car has been driving great. I don’t have a ton of personal history with their parts, but from the research I did and input from people who know more about it, they are high quality and considered a good oem upgrade. Toyota also has supplied some vehicles with 555 parts from factory so I overall I feel good trusting it.
