    Does anybody know if its ok to run stock trd bilsteins (blue and yellow) or the 5100's on a non-trd stock tacoma. Mine is a 2.7L 4cyl 4x4 2002 tacoma with stock suspension right now and i want to get better shocks and struts.

    Looks like you have a 6 Lug truck. So the Bilstien 5100s will work great on your rig. Plus the fronts allow you to lift up to 2.5", and we can match that with a 1.5" aal out back.

    Bilstein 5100's at 1.75", 2"AAL, GrillCraft, Leer 100R(winter only), Foglight anytime, AVS in channel visors,
    You can run them no problem. I had the bilstein HD's (blue and yellow) stock and now have the 5100's what a difference. Def get the 5100 unless you are really trying to save some money

    Stock. Purchased 2/17/19. Cement!
    I have stock (blue & yellow) front shocks that came off a 2010 PreRunner TRD sport. Less than 2K miles on them. Hit me up if you're interested.
