you could make them work but not suggested. If you swap rides it sell the gen 1 trd's and buy some used gen 2 trd's.

Re: Help... will they fit
they will bolt on 100% but not recommended due to deferent weight of the car. Some companies make springs that work on xa/xb and 2nd gen xb but most have deferent part numbers due to weight increase.

Re: Help... will they fit
The rears will be fine but you need to get TC front springs.

keep in mind they will sag over time because their not rated for the weight.

I know of about 3 Gen 2s that are still running this set up and like it. This was before anyone even made aftermarket products for the xb.

STOP YELLING !! lol
