Bilstein 6112

Here in Canada the dealerships don't have the part number in their system, you need to order from the states. Best bet is to have it sent to a border town close to you and pick it up. Some people are saying that the kit is backordered now, this is the place I ordered from https://parts.conicellitoyotaofconshohocken.com

 

Oooh, just checked em out & seems like they're out but I'll check somewhere else

 

Call these guys tomorrow, they seem to be helping people out https://www.oempartworld.com
Heres the 2nd gen thread https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/new-discount-price-on-trd-pro-suspension-kit.534207/

 

You get a fixed front lift. You cannot adjust it like with a regular 6112

 

Thanks!

 

It won’t matter to me anyways since I wasn’t gonna go any higher I liked the leveled look of the pros & It gives u about 1.75” which is perfect

 

I set mine at the 4th notch. Wish I had used the 3rd notch, but only for alignment issues and it’s not worth the hassle to take it all apart.
I got them from Race Consulting Agency. I don’t believe they’ll assemble them for you, but I could be wrong. Not sure about the shipping to Canada thing, but they had the best price that I could find.
I’m a rookie at this game, but the extra cost was money well spent IMO.
They did lift somewhat higher than advertised.

 

Pros aren't level, they are nose high.

 

I was thinking of an AAL for the rear

 

I'll save you a trip, Jeff. They look at you like you're from Mars. One even said it doesn't fit "Canadian" trucks. Can anybody tell me what a Canadian Toyota truck is? As usual, none were available up here. Their computer system doesn't even recognize the part number.

 

Omg Yes I do agree with some parts departments it's like they don't have a clue what your talking about Looks like your from wpg which dealership did u deal with?

 

McPhillips & Birchwood

 

McPhillips that's where I bought my truck from lol & Birchwood I used to work @ that hellhole yrs ago anyway I just recently purchased my pro shocks online from rouge off road

 

Bought mine from McPhillips & it has not been back there since nor ever will be. Gotta say for a city just shy of a million people, getting parts here sucks. Good thing I maintained my Alberta connections.

 

Mcphillips I've never had an issue with its just Birchwood I'll never do business with but yes I do gotta agree with u in parts & selection availability is so limited here............

 

You gotta wonder how much business these guys have lost. I don’t think they care. Oh sure, they send me the service reminders but as far as recalls & service bulletins, not a single one. Yup, that’s real customer service.

 

Please post the actual measurements before and after . With the sagging I'm thinking of doing it also. Unless I decide to get a front bumper and possibly winch then upgrade the spring also (more of a wish list)

yup

yup

I need to get on a first name basis with the lead tech on the donuts. Hey Nick

That's what we've been waiting for. So 1/4" just with 650 spring. Did the ride get a little stiffer? Excellent post.

 

Anyone running 700# coils on 6112s?

620# springs aren't going to cut it with a plate bumper and winch.

Thought I saw a few post in here about it.

 

yes the ride is stiffer, but i expected it to be. I'm enjoying the new springs.

 

Thanks to everyone for your hard work in toying with different clip settings.

I just installed the regular duty Dakar leaf pack and extended 5125’s and now I’m ready to overhaul the front 5100/stock spring/spacer lift the previous owner did.

I like the factory rake and I want no less than 2” of front lift so I’m going to go with the 3rd clip setting and see how she does. I’m hoping my 4wd DCSB will sit between 2.0 and 2.5” front lift to pair with my rear Dakar lift. Halfway through reading this thread I was convinced that the 4th clip and maybe a driver side 1/4” spacer would be perfect but as I read more I feel like I saw more accounts of the 3rd clip giving me what I need. Ideally I would like to be right at 2.5” front lift.



Let me know what y’all think of my plan.


Current stance with the spacer up front and Dakar + 5125 rear.
