    I see a fair amount of folks selling their TRD Off road suspension (Front coilovers, ucas, and rear shocks).
    Are the UCAs different between trim levels? I have a plain Jane SR. How would I benefit from buying these and installing on my truck?
    Thanks,
    John Z

    First off welcome to the forum and thank you for your service! Now to answer your questions, yes and yes. People are usually replacing them because they are lifting their trucks and in my opinion you would benefit from installing TRD off-road suspension parts on your SR. Other opinions will vary depending on the volume of alcohol consumed before responding!

    The suspension is different, but the upper control arms are the same between all the trim levels.
