However, the 6112 on the stiffer springs (so called 650lb) would be a better fit if the vehicle does some type of serious offroading (higher speeds or rocks) even if rare.
In my experience stiffer front rides well with heavy tires; might be less comfy on lighter tires. The 6112 on standard springs was plush in my experience, but too soft for my offroad use.
The 8112 is way overkill for the Midwest and ditto Fox, King.

Thanks for the info. I kind of had something happen that is going to change potential plans. The dreaded trd pro spring crack.
I put a call in to Toyota HQ and filled a official vehicle issue complaint or whatever they call it.
I was strongly urged to have my local dealership do a diagnostic inspection and report their finding to HQ. I am not holding my breath at all but I guess you never know.
The thing I am confused about is I’ve heard from a few vendors that the OEM pro spring is no longer available. So if Toyota decides to repair or replace what will they use?
Anyhow like I mentioned, I am not holding my breath on that and currently working on a backup plan.
I am at 40k on the Billy struts.
Plan A is to get the Dobinson Direct TRD Pro replacement. It is the same spring rate but adds 1” lift (levels?)
Plan B go full crazy and get Dobinson MRRs [emoji2957] buy once cry once.
I guess a Plan C would be The 6120/5160. I feel like that would be equal to stock. And it effectively is.
The important thing is to retain the factory UCA and level the front end. And of course increase ride quality at high speeds over pot holes and bad roads.
