TRD Pro suspension kit

thoughts-

i like the 2nd Gen pro suspension kit and found a brand new set on CL for $1850.

worth it or pass?

 

Agreed. Too much for that kit. New, I'd be looking to pay around $1200. Another option you should consider is Bilstein 6112/5160. This is what the OEM TRD kit is based off of. Same basic design but the TRD version is just tuned a bit more specifically. But, the TRD version isn't height adjustable whereas the regular 6112 is adjustable.

Not sure where you're located, but in case you're in so cal: https://offerup.com/item/detail/1238128385

There's also this used set, priced very well. About the same I paid for a used set with similar mileage a year ago. This setup is a great upgrade over the stock TRD Offroad suspension. More comfortable, more capable and less prone to overheating due to abuse.

How much lift does these TRD Pro suspension give you? I'm looking for a slightly lower lift at 2in. I currently have Eibach pro lift kit installed on the lowest setting and it gives me 2.5in of lift. Would I also be downgrading and is it worth it? Thanks

 

Hard pass. Go 6112/5160 combo and call it a day.

 

It's supposed to be a 1.75" lift over the stock off-road suspension but it will vary a little from vehicle to vehicle. I installed mine with a 3/8" top hat spacer (gives 0.75" lift). Unfortunately, I can't say precisely how much lift this is over stock because I have added weight and I wasn't starting from a stock setup anyway.

Go with the 6112/5160 setup and you can dial the height in as you want and you can stay at the 2.5" you're at now. Or, you can pair the TRD Pro/Baja suspension with a small top hat spacer or the "Baja" spacer from Toytec which sits between the spring and top hat and adds spring preload to gain ~1" of height.

 

Thanks, I'll look into it some more. I like my current setup, the only reason I wanted to go lower was due to my garage door clearance. With my current setup I have about 0.5in clearance left before I hit the door. I should be okay though, just wanted to see my options.

 

If there's only a 1/2" issue you may be able to have a garage door guy fix that for ya. I had an issue with my door recently that required repair and when they were done I had a little more clearance. If the door frame is the issue then obviously that would be a structural fix but if it's just the door itself hanging below the header of the opening you may be able to gain 0.5-1" of extra clearance by making some adjustments to the door mechanism.

 

Buy it from this guy he has sold many and has many.

Thanks for all your responses, made the decision to pass since they are not adjustable.
