Default AWD? Tnf170 a must!!!

Wow what a difference , couldn't stand my awd 4x4 stance , got a set of tnf170 springs and what a difference it has made. I still have another day or so of settling and driving , but it's a must if you have awd. I'll post some pics up tonight/tomorrow . Best part of all is how cheap the springs are ! eBay them, and best of luck to you guys

The stock height was 4x4 status to me, the springs really cancelled out some wheel gap. My 20x10 et45 didn't fit when I test for the wheels so I gave them to my buddy to put on his m35x. I'm just lowered on stock wheels , rides great looks even better . Wheels are next followed by custom exhaust ...

Did it make the ride harsher?

It drives exactly like stock IMO. Height is now perfect with TNF170.

I have the same springs on my AWD and I can't tell the difference between stock and these springs.
