THis states that a warranty is only violated if the change you made voids it. Add a turbo and blow up the engine and show proof the turbo was to blame then the warranty for that repair is void. Add an exhaust and your suspension goes out your fine. The only way they cannot cover something is if something you added is the cause of the damage.

This is EXACTLY how my dealer explained it to me... You only concern should be that your shocks will wear out prematurley due to the drop and your dealer WON'T cover that. Follow the DIY for the spring install and make sure you cut the bump stops to maintain some up-travel. Good luck!

Dealers are masters at blaming others/3rd party parts as the fault of everything. Toyota backs their dealers. Get where im going here?
