    There are many places that carry them. I would suggest headstrong ( as Dgibson529 suggested)or wheelers..they have the best deals that I have seen.

    4 shocks is not all you need..... these will not lift the rear. You'll need an add a leaf for the rear.

    Hey everyone....

    Decided to revive this thread. I've decided to lift my taco 2.5 inches....or maybe 2?? I'll be going with the bilstein 5100 suspension. I'm looking to get a set of 4. I looked on eBay and found a pretty good deal from a trustworthy seller....

    One thing: in the item discription it says that the back pair of shocks do not effect vehicle ride height...so I understood that as they don't lift the truck anymore than it already is.

    Anyone do the 5100 installation? What were the outcomes?

    Thanks.
