    Hello,

    I have a stock 2012 SR5 that I have owned since new. The truck is in the shop and the mechanic suggested Munro shocks for the rear, and QBA struts for the front. I am not thrilled with the suggestion and he has limited access to better parts.

    I found parts off a 2023 TRD off-road (strut assembly, shocks/springs and UCA) on FB Market please so my question is: Can I use 2023 TRD off-road struts and shocks/springs on a 2012 SR5?

    I appreciate any help!

    @Crikeymike, even though they are off the 2023 TRD model?

    thanks

    The suspension on all 5th Gens has been the same from 2010-2023, they may have updated valving and spring rates along the way, but it all fits the same way
