There are six different Timbren kits for suspension enhancement that all fit your 2018 Toyota Tacoma. Four are for the rear and two are for the front. Of the front two, part # TTOFTUN4 is designed for adding support when you put a snow plow on the truck and # TABSTOF is an active bump stop that cushions the shock when off-roading.

A couple of the rear kits are designed to support the rear of the truck when either towing a trailer or adding weight in the bed. Use part # TTORTUN4 if your Tacoma has springs with a 4-leaf stack and part # TTORTUN4L for a 3-leaf stack.

The other two kits are also active bump stops for off-roading. Part # TABSOSR is for vehicles that don't have the U-bolt flip kit that's on Tacomas. Part # TABSTRFK includes the flip kit so you can add ground clearance as well.
