    They look good on your truck, get them sprayed with line-x.

    A lot. See my channel for all installs/mods!
    Ride just feels more “solid”, for lack of better word...biggest difference by far is cornering, body roll was pretty noticeable prior to install, and all but gone now...first corner I took I was extremely impressed!...I’ll be towing my boat for the first time this weekend for a road trip to my camper (3 hour drive), so we’ll see if I notice any difference with that

    Depends on how you off-road. I have a rear sway and off-road often. I haven’t had issues. I’m sure I have a rear wheel in the air once in a while because of it, but I can keep up with almost everyone. I love it because there are many canyon roads near my home, and it improved handling significantly. FC15AE7E-4022-4A99-A51C-178981380EED.jpg

    I think a rear sway bar is beneficial in most cases, especially for a daily driven truck, even if you do the occasional off-road venture.
    Unless you have long travel suspension and/or do some serious rock crawling requiring max articulation the sway bar won't hurt you as much as you might think. Sure, it ties the rear end together more and limits the articulation but in all but extreme cases it won't hinder you all that much. The on-road benefit greatly outweighs the minimal off-road limits for the majority of Tundra owners.

    Hey Jay! I agree too. Underneath the HVAC Controls is kind of cumbersome and too far to reach easily with this style of switch. I did opposite end of yours.

    Nothing yet, but headed that way!!!!
    Where did you order this? Also, when you put the car in reverse does the rear camera come on still automatically, or do you have to use the toggle?

    Yes, if the switch is toggled to the center/neutral position (off) the reverse camera displays the rear image as usual when shifted in reverse. However, if switched to the front camera, it won’t display the rear as the front will take priority.

    I have a 2019 1794. I put the TRD rear sway bar on but am wondering if the front sway bar is worth it as well.

    I was told the 1794 (and maybe all Tundras for that matter) have front sway bars already, possibly not TRD, but sway bars.

    Wondering what people's thoughts are on the TRD front sway bar?

    @Long Duck Dong I believe you are correct in that all Tundras have a front sway bar. The difference to the TRD sway bar is that the TRD one is a bit beefier. I know there are a few threads on this but I don't have any off hand. *calling @Jim LE 1301"

    When you say "leads to this" did you mean the idyllic setting of Devil's Hole or a pot belly?

    Plug n play behind factory head unit. Will work normal when you shift to Reverse or you can on demand toggle to see front or rear anytime.
