V6 - V8 Suspension Compatibility

[EGruner]

I have to do some rear suspension work on a 2010 Eddie Bauer V8 with a tow package replacing a number of parts due to an accident and am considering buying a parts vehicle. Can anyone confirm that the suspension parts on a V6 model are the same as a V8? Other than axle and drive train I thought that the other undercarriage parts are the same. I poked around through an OEM parts data base and that seems to be the case... but I am looking for confirmation before I jump.

Thanks! (in advance)

Not sure about V8 versus V6 rear suspension, but someone on here recently posted about supposedly a difference with or without third row seat option.
I was never able to verify this, but I would think additional passenger weight would simply cut into the available cargo weight, giving the same gross vehicle weight capacity and same rear axle capacity

When searching parts there was no designation for with or w/o 3rd row... (or tow package...) I might need to research further, but thanks for your input.
