Does anyone know if a stock suspension from a 2106 SR5 will fit an FJ Cruiser. Have have one for sale and the buyer is wondering.

Fit, yes. Same spring rates.... probably not exactly.

Also. there are two generations of modern FJ cruisers. 120 based (up to 2010) and 150 based (2010+). Still all pretty much the same bones for the suspension with minor differences in a few areas that don't come into play when talking about springs and shocks.....
 
Only the 10+ are a direct complete swap. The 07-09 FJ Cruiser front lower control arms use a 12mm shaft bolt for the coilover lower joint. The 5th gen 4runner and 10+ FJ Cruiser user a 14mm shaft bolt. The top plates are the same. The other parts are all similar. If your coilover has replaceable lower bushings (like Fox/King/etc. its' a about $30 for a new set in the right size.) Then it fits. I have early FJ Fox 2.5's on my 5th gen with the correct lower bushings.

Hey there - wondering if you know if OME shocks have replaceable lower bushings?

No idea on that. But I'd bet if you call OME they can tell you exactly what you need. I'd say it's probably 99% likely that they have a few parts to swap over. Or you could just drill them out with a 12mm drill bit if not.
