    I have a pair of new take offs from my '15 TRD OR and wondering if they will bolt directly onto my '16 SR without changing the ride height. I know the 3rd gens sit 1 inch higher but wasn't sure if it's directly from a longer coilover or if it's a geometry change.

    I think it's the springs that are physically longer and thats where the lift comes from. I don't know if the shocks are halved any differently since the newer tacomas are slightly heavier as well.
