Looks like a viable alternative to the TRD sway bar, and it doesn't limit articulation, I like that. However, unlike a sway bar, the superspring lift doesn't appear to apply a force on both sides of the axle.

I looked at your supersprings thread. Looks like a good setup, I just hope it doesn't stiffen the ride too much. Thanks for the info!
That's exactly how they will help sway, they provide anit-roll.
As the Supersprings sense weight, they engage.
So as the weight rolls to one side, the superspring on that
side will counteract the body roll.
But yes, only to the outside of the corner side of the axle.
They do not provide the "push/pull" that a sway bar would.

I added them a month after I installed the 1" block.
On the lower setting with the 1" block installed too, I have noticed no change in ride vs. just having the 1" block.

On the higher setting, the Supersprings lifted the truck another 1" or 2" in the rear, and the ride was stiff when unloaded.
