    Do you know if these will work on a Pro? I want to eventually swap out my Pro suspension. The Pro setup is nice, but man these are sweet looking.

    Yes. The suspension short of the springs/shock is exactly the same on all 3rd gen tacomas

    Sweet. Thanks.
    I saw the fronts yesterday for around $750 each on a place called Race Consulting Agency with free shipping. Just don't know if they are a legit place.

    You can try getting it price matched at 4wheels parts from hat website if they are advertising that price doesn't hurt to try

    OVTune Verified Purchase
    A few people on TW have reported purchasing the 6112s from there. Haven't heard any negative reviews, so it seems like it's probably safe. That said, it might still be worthwhile going with a TW vendor such as the OP since they maintain a presence here and many have rave reviews for their excellent customer service.

    Your Pros will sit 1 inch taller than these. You should wait for more people to post lift specs. Shawn at Rogue already had to get a stiffer spring from Bilstein and he only had 200 pounds extra up front

    They have, 8100, unless you have a 2018 which I spoke to them yesterday and the 8112 and 8100 are for 2017 and earlier. The 2018 are out in a couple of months.

    I highly doubt the 2018 is any different from the 2017. Heck the 2nd gen rear suspension will bolt up to the 3rd gen rear suspension.

    From what 4 Wheel Parts told me and then Bilstein confirmed, the 2017 and 2018 suspensions are different. The mounting is different and would require grinding on the springs of the fronts to fit.

    4wheels parts I wouldn't believe anything that comes out of their mouths. Bilstein...I'll wait and see what's their reason they believe it's different and need to grind the springs in the front. Even though in my original post we were talking about the rear suspension....

    Yep, you are right... I transitioned on you from rear to fronts, my bad. I don't know why 4Wheel Parts would deter me from purchasing... if anything I would think they "not" stop me from purchasing and just let me deal with the issue. But the salesperson was frank about it, as was Bilstein. I am very inexperienced to suspension so I am treading very cautiously before purchasing. I know you have been doing this for a long time from reading your other posts....
