    I would think it comes down more to height and angle, but what do i know, lol.

    I reg bump mine up 1.5" with the bags and its fine, other than the stiff a$$ ride cause by bags. So i would think aal with OL out would be good.

    Well i kinda freaked out and ordered two, from two different locations. One says shipped and the other back-ordered. If i get both and they flake on ya, i got your back. Although, i guy i work with is now thinking he needs the other, lol.

    I decided i needed to make up a bit of cash and sold the back tire off my 2nd Yamaha BW200 for $350 last night, so wife is less likely to kill me. :rofl:

    I like them for the most part. I tow a small tractor around occasionally and its nice not stare at the sky.

    Received mine today from my dealer. Opened the large box and the four shocks are present. And one small plastic bag (pictured).

    Question: am I missing something? Should there be an additional plastic bag? Anything else? Thanks

    My mistake. Yep, each rear box has a bag containing the brackets. So I guess I have 3 bags total. Am I good?

    Tip: while unpacking these, when my fingers went through the spring, I dimpled the plastic accordion underneath. The ridges dimple very easily. I inadvertently put like 15-20 on each shock. And it was a bitch getting all the dimples out. Just be mindful of this when handling.

    Prob not a big deal, but over time with compression maybe it'd lead to some holes? Who knows. But avoid the dimples if you can.

    Also to note, as someone asked about manufacture date... there were inspection stickers on my boxes dated 12/15.

    Guys- check your local dealer if interested. The retail price in the Toyota "system" has been reduced to like ~$680. I just went in and asked them their best price and my dealer said $632 + tax. Done deal. They came out of Kentucky and I had them in 3 days. Picked up at the dealer today.

    Pure speculation, but...
    I would think the dealer route would be best if you're worried about getting a set. They can get your order locked in with parts coming from a "real" inventory. I'm guessing the online aftermarket shops might leave you high and dry if they have things on back order. Not maliciously, but that might just be how it works with discontinued parts-- keep you on back order until it's verified that Toyota won't be sending them any more. And then they'll tell you what you don't want to hear.
