    Buddy has stock suspension from 2011 TRD that he only put a couple hundred miles on before replacing with aftermarket suspension. I rode in a 2011 TRD and it seemed much smoother than my 2017 SR5. He seems to think it'd fit just fine and be a better ride than the Hitachi (I think) shocks on the SR5. It is being offered to me for free. Would it fit? Would it be worth it? Opinions?
