    I’m looking to get the x runner bilstien strut. I just want to be sure that the bolt pattern is the same for the shock tower.

    If it does bolt up can someone let me know where I can get assembled x runner struts or the part numbers needed to build them.

    So xrunner shock is on the left. What I did was get a spring compressor to swap them out. Bolts are the same it’s just a stiffer shock. So you can get the x springs and x shocks and assemble yourself.

    Great stuff @nightcrawler! I’ve seen videos on compressing and mounting springs and I’m not against it. I’ll probably go that route if I can’t find a fully assembled set.

    I think I saw you post the part number for the x runner shocks in a previous post so I’ll look in that direction.

    Let me know if you find any and where. I’m still looking online too and don’t want to buy from eBay

    It’s a little nerve racking buying these. Ever time I search for x runner suspension I get lift kits for results lol
