2011 FJ Suspension

I read a similar thread regarding the 2010 FJ suspension, but it was mostly centered around the TT shocks. I just picked up a 2011 FJ 4x4 suspension with 27 miles on it. I bought it mainly for the springs, but I may change out the shocks too. It includes the Tokico shocks, which I know are not as good as Bilsteins, but nevertheless, have less mileage on them than the shocks I have on my 4Runner currently.

My question is: Does anyone know if the 2011 Tokico shocks from an FJ will fit on a 4th Gen 4Runner without any modifications to the shocks?

I'm including a couple of pictures of the shocks. The part numbers on the Tokicos are as follows:
Front: 48510-35400
Rear: 48530-35210

Also, are these shock/strut numbers the same as the numbers from the 2007-2009 tokicos?

From what I've read, there are some slight modifications requires. On the fronts, the 2011 shocks are too wide for the mount on the 4runner. You can trim the bushing down enough for this to clear. On the rear, I think you have to drill out the mounting bolt as the shock won't fit through the hole at the top.

Thanks Ark. I was hoping the Tokicos remained unchanged from the 07-09 versions.

Ark, many folks may already know this but it has yet to be said: you are the most knowledgeable person on this forum when it comes to the FJ suspension swap. Search after search I've done, and you my friend are on every one of them giving some very good advice. So, thanks.
