    I have a 2020 TRD SPORT and where I am at there is major construction going on. Im typically a pavement pounder but, with a recent injury I am feeling every bump on the road. What should I change out to smooth out my ride. Truck is bone stock...

    Only aesthetic mods so far Leer 180 cap & Clazzio covers on order.
    Drive slower or take an alternate route.
    Much less costly.

    Lower your tire pressure?

    Go to the buy sell trade section here and get some of the new take off Tacoma Off Road shocks that come stock on the TRD Off Road Tacomas. Much softer ride.
