    Basically, it provides a connection between the left and right side suspension system and dampens body roll. Also reduces suspension travel so some off road performance may be lost depending on the terrain. I'm sure that there is a lot more to it than that but that is the nutshell version.

    Forgot to mention that the TRD rear sway bar is red and it looks cool too.

    I noticed a big difference right away after installing mine. Feels like it takes about 70-75% of the body roll out. Great for towing. If you do any kind of advanced wheeling it might not be for you.
