    No TRD trim is available without V6.

    So the TRD springs would be tuned for a V6 making them different than 4cyl, right? The reason im asking is the rebound on my Offroad coilovers seems kinda harsh; like they were made for a heavier front end.

    Likely so. I don’t know if the coils had different spring rates. I only have one spring rate for second gens, so not sure if that changed. :notsure:

    There's less than a 100lb difference in curb weight for 4cyl vs 6cyl in otherwise identically equipped trucks.

    I put OR shocks and coils on my SR, definitely a smoother ride than the hitachis, especially off road.

    Then i would suspect all of that weight is in the front end so that would mean a lighter coil would work better.
