    I have a 2019 4x4 SR LB with a V6. I'm considering buying a 2022 4x4 Sport suspension that has 4,500 miles versus mine with 120,000. I'm sure the Sport will be stiffer but I noticed the Sport has one more leaf spring than my SR. Will there be any compatibility issues with swapping my suspension? Payload difference?

    Thanks in advance.....

    I'm not familiar with the leaf spring difference, but the mounts are the same on all models, so it should all bolt up on your SR fine.

    That said, I couldn't get rid of my stock Sport shocks quick enough... They sucked every way imaginable (teeth-rattling over bumps/potholes, no control on residential street speed humps (ANY faster than posted would slam the bumpstops), forget about going off road, all they did was make offroad travel miserable lol). I understand the TRD Off Road shocks are a bit better in these regards, I'd hold out for a set of OR takeoffs.
