    Hey guys, I'm new here. Just need a little advice if you don't mind. I had just purchased the eibach stage 2R for my 3rd gen TRD Sport and was wondering if my OEM suspension would fit on my dad's 07 2nd gen base. He has the 5 lug.

    Thought I'd help him save money by giving him my OEM suspension....Is this possible?

    Welcome to TW.
    DK answer to your question, but if you go to the forum tab and post this in the "5 lug" section, those guys will prob know.

    No 5 lug and 6 lug Tacomas have very different suspensions, you can't interchange any of it as far as I'm aware.

    You're absolutely right. I just went on the 5 lug forum and read enough to realize that 5 lugs have its own specific type of suspension

    Thank you! I just finished reading a few post in the 5 lug forum and I found my answer. 5 and 6 are not interchangeable unfortunately and the 5s have its own suspension/leveling.
