These KYB Gas-a-Just shocks use higher gas pressure to keep your tires glued to the road. The KYB Gas-a-Just shocks' velocity-sensitive valving system adjusts quickly to changing road conditions for maximum comfort in any situation. Their monotube configuration eliminates aeration and foaming, their micro-smooth, hard-chromed pistons extend their life, and their seamless cylinders and eyerings completely eliminate seam failures.

So we can get an upgrade to the OEM shocks without paying the extra $$$ for the TRD logo. That's what I wanted to know!

Now, anoyone has any info on what would be the KYB equivalent to the TRD option?

Any one with TRD shocks that can provide the specs, p/n etc... to help find the KYB match.

Also, about KYB. It might not be the best shock performance wise, but I can tell you those are some long lasting and good quality shocks.
