    I am going tomorrow to pick between a 2012 or 2013 Taco 4x4 DCSB, both Off Roads and my question is about the Bilstein shocks. Do they use the 5100's ? I plan on doing a 2 1/2 lift in front and 1inch AAL to the rear and I am wondering if the Bilstein shocks that come on these trucks are adjustible to get .

    No sadly you are thinking of the 5100s, which a lot of people upgrade too, its fairly cheap option however

    OR Tacomas come with the Bilstein 4600s, which are 500 units of measurement (mm, ounces, awesomeness) short of the 5100s.
