    What’s a good stress test to perform after doing any suspension modification?

    Is driving around the block, doing figure 8 and mini slalom good enough of a test?

    We do a back road at around 40mph. I take all the TRD Pro's there if they are not customer trucks, so media etc. It's kinda important we know how they behave and what is normal.

    The 4runner TRD Pro had a lot of quirks on first launch and we were able to dismiss complaints because of shake downs.

    I don't bother anymore unless its a really fancy suspension.
