    Yes if you are running a 2" AAL, I would recommend that you go with the 24-214667 2-2.5" inch lift rear shock.

    I just placed my order, 2 up front and 2 for the rear. I have my truck scheduled for some major maintenance on Monday, including an alignment, and hoping they arrive this week. At 150,000 miles on the stock set up I think it's time to have them replaced.

    Can't wait and thanks for the awesome deal on these shocks.

    I have a 2013 tacoma DC long bed. I was wondering what rear shocks should I order if I get the front adjustable 5100? I want to level the truck.

    The rear shocks is decided by how much lift you have in the rear.. For example, if you have 1"inch of rear lift, you would order the shock that allows for 0-1.5"inches of lift. If you have anywhere between 2-2.5"inches of lift, you would order the shock that allows for 2-2.5"inches of lift and so on.

    If you have any other question shoot me a call.

    Only the fronts are adjustable. When you say you have a 3" block, are you referring to the rear block, or a strut spacer up front?

    If your truck is stock, then you have 0"inches/No lift and would order the 0-1.5" rear shocks. Part #

    Have a question, The shop putting on my front 5100 wanted to know if the stock brake lining will still be long enough and will they have trouble with the front end alignment. Also they were wondering if the stock coils are ok to use or do I need to change them out. They couldn't figure out how the shocks are going to lift the vehicle. He thought the coils would have to be changed to lift it. I'm new at this so bare with me.


    Thanks,
    Craig

    Bilstein has instructions listed under the part number, I would suggest you print them out for this shop.
    Bilstein recommends that you retain your factory coil. Brake lines nor alignment will be an issue.
