    Does anyone know about Detroit Axle strut assemblies? My 04 Prerunner Double Cab is due.

    What now? axle struts?

    Do you mean a CV Axle?

    They are probably fine. But retain your OEM ones and reboot them while off the truck, or sell them to someone else (like me) to reboot and use them.

    Coilovers....

    This page will turn into 5 pages worth of users talling you they're COILOVERS and not struts, even tho they understand what you're looking for...

    I would recommend bilstein 4600 or 5100 for a stock replacement over general brand. KYB is another cheap option

    I don’t know about their struts, but I’ve been running a Detroit axle steering rack for 6-7 years now with no issues.
