    It looks like they may have coated the supercharger belt as well.

    That’s what makes it fun. I can bubble wrap my ‘15 TRD pro supercharged or I can live life and drive it.
    I choose the later.

    I don't know, Montana/Idaho have crazy tacoma values generally. The closes comparable around us is an 11 with 138k for 22.5k. I suspect the truck would go for 27-29k all day long. Had a friend with a 12 Baja go for 27k private party locally with 181k. Its, its own little eco system around here.

    Hello all.
    I purchased my 15 pro just shy of 2 years ago. Love it. Just rotated the tires last weekend and noticed my suspension looks tired. I'm looking for some advice on what direction I should go for replacement.

    She's my work rig. Ton of miles on county roads to and from job sites. Haul about #500 pounds of tools daily. Also considering a fab fours plate bumper up front before summer.(whitetail country)

    The stock setup seemed to handle the load fine. That said, the ride leaves something to be desired. Thanks for any suggestions! Love checking in on this thread. Some of you guys make me jealous with what you've done over the years.

    New aftermarket leaf springs for a “medium“ load, Bilstein 6112 up front with the correct spring for your heavy steel bumper and then 5150’s in the rear. It won’t say TRD on it anymore, but it’s pretty much the same thing. @ARCHIVE has some nice leaf spring packs that I’d recommend.

    The stock Pro suspension tends to last 45-55k miles before leaking and/or front springs cracking at the base. You can go with the same setup like @JasonLee said with Bilsteins. If you're going to add steel bumpers you'll want heavier coil springs while you're doing it, and maybe a new leaf pack in back or a progressive AAL to support the extra weight in your bed.

    I just upgraded to OME BP-51 which is an amazing ride and would soak up those country road bumps for you at any speed. If you can find a set of Fox take-offs from a newer Pro that's another good option.

    Ok thanks. I'll check out those options. For the Bilstein option what setting should I be on? Any chance you could get me a link for the exact leaf I should be looking at?

    Just rolled over 190k. Thinking these weren't the original struts

    How many miles are you at on your stock suspension? I just changed mine out ~ 6 months ago with 76k with the 3rd gen TRD Pro Fox take offs that @RyanL mentioned. There are many options out there and you can easily get into the many of thousands of dollars quickly.

    EDIT: Holy shit, 190k?!
