TRD coil lift for 3rd gen 4runner, Tundra or 4runner top plate?

I just bought some front TRD coils and shocks from an 2004 access cab Tundra with just a 1k on them. The owner busted the OG's then bought these then decided to go extended arms and coil overs. Anyway... I only wanted the coils but he said he will only sell them complete because he didn't want to breakthem down. They look great and have the yellow and blue Bilstein's. Can I just bolt these up or do I have to break them down and replace the top plate?

Also can I use the Bilstein's it came with or do I need to get new front shocks?

The Tundra top plates will not work...the holes on the upper strut mount won't line up with the studs. You need to swap it out with the one on your 4Runner or source a used one from a 4Runner or Tacoma at a junk yard.
