    Anybody know the difference between the Sport and the OR front strut springs. Looking at replacing the front and rear shocks. Shocks I have are for a stock Toyota OZ. Should I use my Sport springs or some for an OR model?

    No struts on the Tacoma. Shocks and springs.
    Springs on Sport and OR should be the same.
    The shocks are different. Sport has valving that is more firm than the soft stock OR shocks.

    The front are struts i belive. Hence the huge price difference.

    FYI. OEM OR front struts will have much more braking front end nose dive than OEM Sport struts.
