Convertible Front End Shaking

Hello guys.

It's been a long time since I posted on this website. I got rid of my 04 SLE vert a while back and just recently got a 08 Sport vert.

Do other vert owners notice the front end / windshield frame shaking with hitting bumps?

My 07 did that and after adding the TRD FSTB (front strut tower brace) it was minimized and added better handling. I also highly recommend getting the TRD Rear sway bar to counter the body roll.

I am surprised you didn't have these problems with the 04 unless someone already added the TRD parts I mentioned.

I am very tempted to get the 4 point brace to stiffen the joint between the front end and the unibody. I have read a few comments about it making the steering jerk allot when hitting some road hazards. Since reading the threads it has gotten good responses for eliminating windshield twisting.
