The SR thread, let's see them!

It changes between a v6 trd off road and a 4 banger sr

The suspension off of the trd off road on a 2.7 should yeild about an inch lift and a firmer ride due to the coils being heavier because of the v6

I have seen this done by fellow memebers on a 2.7 access cab just never a 2.7 double cab

 

I did this swap on mine and didn't achieve any lift. Mine is a 2017 4x4 SR AC. My shocks came off a 2017 TRD OFFROAD DCSB 4X4. Maybe the lift is gained if the truck is 2WD?

 

I think you are correct

Less weight in the front with out the transfer case

 

Anyone want to sell their SR grill? PM me please!

 

In looking at the parts, there are 4 different part numbers for Tacoma coils. Looks like depending on trim and either 4x4 or RWD, a 4cyl and a 6cyl can share the same coil part number. They are also side specific.

eg:

• Positions:Right
• Other Names:Spring, Spring Coil Front
• Description:
  4wd, without trd pro, 3.5L, 6 ft bed, without limited, without off road. Tacoma. 2.7l. Right. 140 wheelbase. 2wd, 3.5L, 6 ft bed. Without fuel tank protector.
  
  
• Applications:RWD. 4WD.

 

Can you comment on the ride difference?

The OR TRDs have the only progressive rate coils vs all other models have linear rate coils.

 

I drive 100+ miles a day and I really couldn't tell much difference. The only noticeable difference was a R/R crossing. Before I would slow to 35-40, now I can go over it at 55 and its pretty smooth. I don't off-road, so no update on that aspect.

 

Almost look separated at birth

 

You are a couple months late or I would of gave you mine. Mine is out in Oklahoma on @Boris20 truck.

 

Lol, I was plan to plastidip steelies at first but I change my mind. If I did, it could be twin

 

If I could find some free time I would be closer to selling mine! I am designing a new grill insert for my SR but need to make a few tweaks before cutting one. I am off to SEMA tomorrow morning and when I return my #1 priority is laser cutting the grill. If you are still in need of the stock SR grill by the time I have my new one I will let you know

 

I plastidipped but had issues getting it to adhere to the outer lip of the wheel so I peeled it all and painted it instead. I plan on getting fj cruiser trail teams wheels eventually.

 

The steelies weigh 28.5lbs on my scale which is inline with what others have said between 28-30 lbs.

 

Pm sent, I have one that I will be offloading shortly!

 

I plan to do this to my SR DCSB. Just picked up some TRD OR suspension off a DCSB. I assume just a simple swap.

 

2017 SR utility package running 265/75r16 Falken Rubitrek A/Ts. Stock height. I have side steps and a cap on the way but this is the only photo I have as of now.

 

possibly stupid question here. My SR is pretty stock, tint, installed some fogs. I picked up some '17 TRD OR suspension and some new Falken WildPeak AT3w's that I'll be installing soon. I was back and forth between this and an SR5 and the price difference wasn't there for me to drop an extra $3k on the SR5. My question is how easy is it to add some features of the SR5 into the SR? Ideally looking at minor things like sun shades that have mirrors/lights? Homelink rear view? Radio to the SR5 version with XM? Even possibly the speedometer that has the multi-display unit?

Maybe stupid. Regardless, I love my SR and need to get a photo up!

 

Speaking of, I'd love to have chrome bumpers on mine

 

Trade with someone that have chrome bumpers. All the trd nonpremium guys are dipping their chrome.

 

What color? Cause I'm sure someone would be willing to trade, cause alot of people would rather have color matched bumpers.
