    Doesn't Eibach make springs for Bilstein among fox and others? Maybe Bilstein makes their own springs. :notsure:

    I've seen King 2.5 springs do that in heavy wet/rust climates.

    Not sure who makes Bilstein springs, but one would think that they should last longer than 55K kms? I have had other vehicles last 7x longer with no issues.

    I wouldn't warranty that either, your spring looks rusted through.

    Their warranty covers defects in workmanship and materials, your failure wasn't caused by either.

    No sure how you could say that is rusted through, looks like a flaw in the metal to me.

    Hi guys! I'm planning of doing some upgrade on my 2017 Tacoma TRD Offroad. I already installed my decked drawer system, next are the following, GFC V2 Pro camper, Steel skid plate and slider, Aluminum Front and Rear bumper. With all these additional loads, what would you recommend for suspension kit best for daily drive and moderate off road like dirt trails, gravel roads, mud trails or terrains, trails that have dips (like what Red Knight initially asked)? TY
