    I went thru pep boys with a crap magnet, got it all
    I have been driving the 2017 TRD Offroad 4x4 for 5 years, no complaints. Due to the lack of new vehicles in OR, I am considering a 2022 Limited 4x4. Basically the same truck but it has the Leather 10 way power seats, the Adaptive Cruise and all the right connectivity junk. I know I dont get the locking differential but I never used it anyways.
    Is the suspension the same?

    Thanks

    No. Off road is more cushy

    Limited is same as TRD sport. Off-road is cushier and pro is cushiest.
    They are built to handle street better.

    Limited I think is SR5 suspension?

    Unless something has changed recently, the Limited has the same suspension as the SR and SR5 (black Hitachi shocks).

    pro = Cushy
    OR = Squishy
    Sport = Stiffy

    :D


    I did some off road this past weekend. The fox suspension really suits the Tacoma. Some ruts where I expected my teeth to be rattled, were simply absorbed outright.
    No bouncing either - poised and flat.

    yes, the suspension is not full ‘bro’, it is not blue, it is not long travel, and yes, I could get better traction by installing aftermarket tracks to replace the wheels / tires, and add wings to make the taco fly, but this suspension works quite well for being ‘factory’!
