    I have an 09 Taco pre-runner off road package double cab. I installed a Toytec ultimate lift kit with add a leafs a few years ago. I also had the harsh ride TSB completed a few years ago. The rear shocks are busted. I would like to replace them with the same Bilstein 5100s but I'm not sure which ones I need.

    Does anyone know the model number of the ones I need to buy? I don't know if the ones I have are the extended length Bilsteins or not.

    Thanks for the help! :)

    Geez, this isn't easy! Looking at my shocks, I had the extended length 5100s. BE5-B110-T5 I think is the model #. I'm wondering if they busted because they were too long. Should I go with the regular length 5100s, or go back with the extended length, or the 5125s?
