TRD Pro Owners: I have a request...

[SMEE]

I have acquired a 2015 TRD Pro suspension and I'm going to get it installed at my local 4 Wheel Parts store tomorrow. I'm unsure how the rear remote reservoir bolts up to the frame and that makes me skeptical if they know where it actually bolts up as well.
Request: Could someone with access to a TRD Pro take a picture of the rear remote reservoir location/setup so I can show the tech how it should be positioned correctly?

Thanks for your help!

Edit: profile pic is my first 4Runner, I own a 2014 Trail now.

You sure they can even mess with an ifs? But if you want a picture, just google it, there are at least a few.

If I were you I would try and find someone else to do the install. Lots of horror stories out the there about 4 Wheel Parts.

The suspension I have is just shocks and coils, so that should be a pretty easy install for them. I have found a few pictures but most are from Tundra TRD Pro. I would like a clear cut picture to show exactly how the stock setup looks. This is the best picture I have found so far, but I'm not even sure it's from a 4Runner.

Thanks fellas!!!

Oh suuuure, that one is CLEAN. :suspicious:

Looks like a simple install. It looks like a standard bracket retaining the shock reservoir. I'm betting there is a OEM hole punched in the frame rail to mount it.

Good luck with the new suspension install! I'd love to install a kit like that myself. Too bad the wife wanted a Limited 5th gen....

do yourself a favor and stay away from 4WP. I wouldnt trust them to install seat covers

If I hated my truck and wanted to be sure of completely ****ing it up, I'd let 4WP get near it with a wrench. That'd do it.

That's definitely a 4runner. 4wp is just very much a jeep place and you hear about guys all the time bringing in their Toyota's and their install guys just kinda crap their pants at the thought of coilovers. There are better options out there.

I can tell you for sure that the following is from a TRD Pro 4Runner as I took the photo myself!

I hope you got all of the parts / brackets / bolts that were removed from the TRD Pro, as they are not that easily purchased from the dealership.

The yelp reviews for our local 4wp is pretty bad. You may want to take a look at you local one to see what the reviews are like. Also if you have a jack and some stands the rear is pretty darn easy to do. I did my rear springs and shocks in about an hour and a half. Got all the info I needed from this forum before I started.

You guys are making me nervous about 4WP. I hope none of you have had experience with the Little Rock branch, and are referring to a location in CA!

[MENTION=103267]Saker[/MENTION], yep I pulled that pic from your post! A nice, clean ride, I mean why not use it as a model for my build!? Thanks for the heads up about the brackets and bolts- I double checked I had everything after I read your reply.
[MENTION=130489]pauldavis[/MENTION] I know it's a pretty simple job to do but I don't have the tools or time to do it. I wish I did..

Always appreciative of everyone's feedback, so if anyone is reading along and wants to chime in, I'd love to hear your opinion.

These are the instructions for the TRD Parts on the 4Runner. Includes the detailed specifics of mounting the reservoir for the rear shocks.

I could tell from the suspension components as well as the reservoir placement itself as it's different on the trucks.
