    Have the opportunity to pick up a stock suspension from a 2015 Tacoma TRD sport dirt cheap. Will it fit in my 98 Tacoma TRD? Coils, bilstiens and leafs

    Thanks. I didn't think so but couldn't find anything definitive. $300.00 was a smoking deal

    If you can fabricate yes. but - it's quite risky. Do you know how to properly set up the geometry on an old pickup not designed for it? Sure it would probably work but that's a little risky say at 80mph and something doesn't rebound correctly sending you into a median :) Probably best to do some studying on the subject. Anything is possible if you have the funds and the tools. Funds being the most prevelent.
