    Hello!

    I searched in the forums and couldn’t find an exact answer.

    I have a 24 SR5 Premium non-TRD. I am looking at getting 22-25 TRD Pro Fox take offs. It would include:
    Front Shocks with coils.
    Rear Shocks with coils.

    Seeing that mine is a non-TRD would I have to upgrade anything else?

    I’ve heard talk about the Red CV axels but also saw it’s not needed unless you’re doing extreme off roading.

    I put the same lift on my 24 TRD sport. Everything bolted right up. The only thing I found from my research is it’s recommended to use red axles. Mine still has the black axles and I recently wheeled it in Colorado for a week and had no issues.
    I’ll probably install red axles at some point but for now it’s working good.

    Nice choice on color!

    I am also interested in this but I have a limited trd offload. I was looking at a way to get rid of the rake without doing a lift. Do the trd pro shocks accomplish that or is there more that would need to be done?

    You will gain 1.1” in ride height up front by swapping from your TRD OffRoad suspension to the TRD Pro suspension. You should already have the red axles, so all set there. The rear ride height remains unchanged, but you experience the benefits of the upgraded shocks in the rear.

    To follow up on that are there other options/brands of shocks that would achieve the same or similar results? I've been looking at leveling kits but don't want to affect the great ride quality I'm getting now

    100% there are other options that will achieve same increased ride height and likely improve ride quality. Take a look at front coilovers and paired rear shocks from Fox, King, Icon, etc.

    Many will say a “leveling” kit will get the increased ride height, but the ride quality may suffer. I would look at some options from the above mentioned brands.

    Thanks for all the info. Would I need to upgrade the upper control arm if I upgrade the shocks?

    It will drive better and align better with upgraded upper control arms, but not completely necessary if you are not lifting over 1.5” ride height.
