I installed non-TRD Gen 5 strut assemblies on the front of my 03. All I had to do for mods is trim about a 1/16" or so of metal off the lower strut eyelet so it would fit. That part was easy. Getting the old top hat to release from the strut tower was not so easy. A big chisel and hammer was needed to break it free. The new assemblies were a huge ride improvement and brought the front up to where it should be.
I think the Tacoma and FJ assemblies will fit with the same trimming.
