Will 3rd gen stock Bilstiens fit 2nd gen?

i have a 2006 double cab 4x4 sport. Have a chance to get some Stock Bilsteins from a 2018....
1. Will they fit?
2. Will they give me any lift?

 

Ok...found answer in other threads which seems to be yes they will fit....
My rear is actually currently lower than the front. So...
Can I add some sort of spacer to get a little lift in front?
What is easiest way to get a slight lift in rear after putting these 3rd gen Bilsteins on rear?

 

I ran some 2017 rear stocks from a trd offroad on my 06 before I got my 5100s. They fit like stock and had stock ride height without any kits added on it, but I didnt really notice a difference in ride quality even though they were like brand new. I would advise to just drop some money on some 5100s if you really want to see a difference in ride quality and they will allow you run bigger lifts if you choose to do so in the future.

If you do chose to stick with the newer stock bilsteins, then I would say just get Toytec front coil spacers and rear AALs. This will get you to 3 inches on the front and rear. I ran the same setup before my new 5100s and other components.

 

This is my brothers truck running my old setup with stock shocks.

 

Is that with the Toytec spacers and AAL?

 

Also, is there spacer available that would not give quite as much as 3 inches? Was hoping for around two so I would not have to do anything else?

 

Spacer sizes/kits vary for your desired lift. Anything 3" and under and you should be able to keep stock specs on everything else. I'm at 2.75" with my 5100s and OME AAL; Camber and caster are still within OEM specs. Plus the 5100s are adjustable!
