Strut Assembly Question

I've got a 2015 TRD Pro and recently replaced the front left strut assembly with the part advised by O Reilly's. The front left now sits about 1'' lower than the rest of the truck - evidently, TRD Pros are lifted. Any recommendations for where to find the correct strut assembly? Would taking it to the dealership be the move?

 

Bilstein 5100's or 6112's. 6112's were used on the 2nd gen PRO's. They are both height adjustable.

 

did you replace the complete strut assembly, spring and shock? or just the shock after disassembling the strut?

 

I replaced the complete strut assembly. This is what I used: https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/...-truck-2015-toyota-tacoma?q=shock/strut&pos=1

These don't look to be adjustable.

 

yeah those arent Pro struts...they are SR ones, thats why you lost that inch. The 3rd Gen Off Road (blue and yellow ones) will give you that inch back if you can find some take offs...different spring. Its not the shock that lost you the inch, its the spring..sorry!

 

get some used coilovers in the for sale area here, or ebay. I believe third gen coilovers will fit on a 2nd gen as well.

many people get a low miles truck and immediately lift it, you can totally find low miles coilovers for sale.

replace both at the same time.

 

Only the 3rd gen Off Road struts will give you that inch back. The sports and SR will not...
