    I have a 2019 SR5 four-wheel drive, double cab and my neighbor 's. Boyfriend gave me his parts from his 2019 TRD. They are original TRD parts and he says that they should fit and would lift my truck a little bit. I was wondering if anybody could tell me yes it would fit and would lift my truck a little bit. I believe he said there's control arms and shocks that sort of thing. Thank you. I'm very new at this. My next step is to call a dealership and ask, but I thought I'd try here first. Thanks!.

    Is his truck the TRD Off Road trim model? If yes, I am pretty sure that they will fit on your SR5. But I don't think the stock Bilstein shocks from an Off Road model are going to give you any appreciable lift on your SR5 4WD truck. But then again, what the hell do I know!

    PS: welcome to TW!

    I think there is a slight lift with OR suspension.

    There is about 1/2" lift when installing on a 2wd SR5. It's minimal though on a 4wd due to the front end being heavier. The good news is that if the shocks are from an Off-Road and have relatively low mileage that your truck will ride significantly nicer. The shocks only last 50-70k though, so if they're close to that age I would probably replace with fresh shocks first.

    But to answer your question, OP, yes the suspension setup is 100% pnp. The whole setup is about exactly the same as what you already have (if 100% stock) but the Off-Road comes with softer shocks that ride much better than the Hitachi's the SR5's come with.

    Thanks! I agree that if they are low mileage that it’s worth throwing them on.

    if it was a TRD Pro, yes it will lift, everything else will fit, but not lift it any. I highly doubt he was giving away a whole TRD Pro suspension though, as they can fetch 4 figures used.
    As mentioned, the non-Pro TRD Off Road shocks are soft (some prefer, some don't) and seem to wear out quickly. That said, the springs lift the truck, not the shocks.

    I would ask at how many mile these were taken off at,, they may very well not be worth your time and effort to install,,,, and certainly not worth paying shop time to install.

    What is your overall goal? start with that, and also pics of all the parts you have.

    I’m assuming you mean TRD off-road or Sport and not a TRD Pro.

    Yes they will fit, but personally I don’t think it would be worth the time to swap shocks and coil springs unless your current ones are toast.

    No they won’t provide any appreciable lift.

    Also note that the upper control arms are the same as the ones you have.

    My goal is a 3" lift with 33 tires so I can do trail runs with the off road club I joined. They are in his garage...the more replies I get the more I'm thinking of not using them. He was trying to help as my budget is tight. But I think I am just going to keep saving.

    Assuming you have the stock all-season tires, you will get more bang for your buck by switching to an all-terrain or mud-terrain tire.

    In any case, you don’t need anything before hitting the trails. 4wd is a game changer. Everything else is icing on the cake.

    Many prefer to keep the independent front suspension lifts to 2.5" max and 2.00" to be on the safe side.
    A lift won't give you more clearance,, up to a certain point, a lift will allow you to mount larger tires, which will give you the ground clearance. That said, the front to back (12:00-3:00) part of the opening, is more or less the tire size limiting factor.
    Either way, OE suspension is not going to get you 3" of lift and sounds to be a waste of resources in your case.
    I would do some reading and try to get an idea of what you actually need.

    Also, as mentioned above, with some A/T tires, your stock Tacoma will do decent off road, and you may not need anything more. I would get some A/Ts and let your group know what you have and your experience level and they should help find you trails to learn on.
