3rd Gen Suspension to 2nd

See craigslist post below, would this be worth getting assuming they dont have a ton of miles on them? I am currently on Monroe all around (awful choice I made because I needed something on a budget)

See if you can wait for a TRD Off-Road Suspension(2nd or 3rd gen) take off. They usually go for great deals since people often upgrade their suspension.

 

Its not a bad price for that complete setup and it'd be a very quick swap.

I think you can get the Bilstein take-offs for roughly $150-200, which I think would be more valuable and give you a slight lift up front.

 

Ahhh thats what I was missing, these are not the TRD Offroad, they are just SR5. I will definitely wait and keep my eyes open for a set of the bilsteins. Thanks for the quick replies. Will be passing.

 

What area are you in? Check your regional buy sell trade threads. There are always 3rd Gen OR suspensions with low miles for sale. I got mine locally with 10k miles for $200 and that included the leaf springs. I sold my stock suspension one piece at a time and got back $120.

 

I am in Montana. I will have to see if there even is one for this region LOL. I have seen a few on CL here locally, but they have wanted 400-500 for a full set of take offs.

 

Another set (well, part of) of these popped up today, this time it looks like they are the TRD OR, only asking $50 for the fronts. These don't come up too often, any thoughts? I don't know the mileage they've had put on them yet.

Seems decent. Look to see how many miles were put on it. You'll need a top hat for the coil as well. Some will say that it's not worth it since "you'll require a spring compressor." But if you're mechanically inclined, you can easily install it using the lower control arm and jack method.
