    Like I said before, CarID doesn't inventory items and they all ship direct from Bilstein. So if you didn't get fronts, you won't get them.

    I never had any communication from CarID that fronts were backordered, I had to call THEM. Still charged my card and gave me shipping date, knowing they had none available and they still haven't updated their website either. Methinks they're trying to entice orders with a low price, charging immediately for items that won't be available for a month or more and issuing refunds when requested. Meanwhile the guys who don't call still help pay their bills while the customers wait on parts.

    Cancel your order on the fronts and look somewhere else. You won't get them til January.

    I actually thought about that! I see you have them. How much of a lift did you get out of them and are they adjustable as well?

    I got ~2in of lift with the setting they came with. They are adjustable from 0-3" of lift. Mines a Prerunner so a 4x4 might get slightly less lift with the factory setting. I love them, PM me for some good pricing info.
