    Negative. I have PTR61-35201-LF and RF Identical to the ones they replaced.

    I believe the ones you are referring to are for later model years 22+

    Does anyone have a set of low mileage OEM TRD PRO 2017-19 front springs they would like to depart with?

    Just picked up a used PRO FOX suspension set up that ill be installing on my SR5. However the coating on the front springs has chipped and cracked resulting in the formation of rust. I want to replace the springs but haven't been able to find a part #.

    I searched the classifieds but haven't found any springs for sale and figured this might be a good place to check in with. Thanks in advance!

    anyone running front springs only with a 2020-2021 pro? looking to add these springs to assist with added weight to the truck a bit more clearance for 33s. Im currently stock with Icon stage 1 leafs in the rear.

    Can anyone tell me if the lift is the same from these springs on the '22-'23 PRO as what is specified on the website for the '20-'21? The '22+ is 1.5 and I believe the 20-21 was only 1"...is that correct? So I am wondering do these springs only lift 1" instead of the 1.3" specified on Eibach's site?

    Not the same spring. Eibach’s aftermarket spring would be slightly taller than the stock spring on a 2022/2023.

    Based on the before and after measurements of other people’s post, I’d say 1.3” of lift is accurate when comparing it to a stock 2020/2021. When compared to a 2022/2023 this spring should yield 0.8” of lift.

    Been going back and forth for a while but finally pulled the trigger on a set of these today. Keeping my fingers crossed that the update fixed the issue and hopefully have no squeaking after install :fingerscrossed:

    Thank you. I am guessing then these will not clear a 285s on the stock Pro wheels?

    Awesome! Interested to see how those workout. I can't decide between these and the Wescott collar. What are you goals with these?

    Moderate lift while keeping the PRO fox shocks. I will be upgrading to 285s eventually but I will enjoy the slight amount of ground clearance in the meantime.

    I considered the Westcott collars but ultimately felt like springs were the better option for my application(daily driving w/ modest amounts of off-roading), for reasons that I will admit are probably just a personal bias because essentially both options do the same thing. Some guys are running both the upgraded springs and the Westcott collars to overcome added front end weight, which is always an option down the road as well…

    I just saw you have a '21 which I think makes more sense for you to to the Eibach because it gives the 1.3" lift. With the '22+ it's less than an inch. I honestly had never thought about both.

    Thanks. That is what I thought but was having trouble finding that info. Info on the '22-'23 is slim.

    Is it true that the '22-23 Pro stands a touch taller than the '20-21?

    Someone here mentioned the Eibach springs will only yield 0.8" lift or so on the newer trucks opposed to the 1.3" for the '20-21. Is that true?

    Yeah.
    From what I have read, the newer Pro's with the flashy TRD UCA come a bit higher already in stock form. As to how they achieved that, I am not sure -- if they achieved it by adding a slightly longer spring than previous years, then this spring won't add as much as it did on previous years. Hopefully Eibach can chime in and explain.

    '22's should be the same as the '23's right?

    few pages back. 1/4” top hat spacer on there, but still apples to apples.

    Modifications underway
    I have a 22 and to be honest got basically no lift with the eibach springs. I'm pretty disappointed. My center of hub to fender is around 21.5" close to where it was before.
    It is nice that they are flat ground on top, I've looked to adding a spacer. But a spacer needs to be super custom to fit so it holds springs and doesn't bottom out on the shock body.
    I found some revtek spacers on eBay cheap and modified them but it is very tight between the shock body and spacer, could still get a collision at bottom I fear. My current wall thickness on spacer where it holds the spring is 2.4 mm and the clearance to shock body is .6mm radially.
    Thinking hard about getting westcott kit and being done with it. I liked the idea of just springs and not messing with the collars. And the spring being flat ground on top so my coils don't sit funny. But they just don't add any real lift on my 22.

    The springs also touch the fancy red control arms slightly at full droop.
