    Then what is it ??, I mean it's obliviously running what some would say are 2nd gen struts/shocks, ok, I guess they'd fit on a 1st gen with a shoe horn, but look at the LBJ... Doesn't look like a 1st gen.. I'm OCD'ing on this POS now haha...:eek::D

    looks like a newer tundra

    as to this, swaybars are not rocket surgery its a bar that links one side of the suspension to the other no matter where it attaches. Other than mounting location and type of end link used they've been pretty much the same as long as they've been around. The OP figured it out with this pic, thus it served its purpose as a reference even though the endlinks and attachment may have been slightly different.

    Shocks are not the problem, check your springs!!! rear leafs are probably broke.
