    received my rears today, Fronts should be in tomorrow. They are brand new and look great. Shipping could have been packed better but no damage inside the box.

    I ordered mine from jet.com today. I hope they are the adjustable 5100s since that is the part number. If anyone has ordered them please let us know. I will post once I get them.

    Think I've decided in the same. How'd it turn out? Did you also run spacers up front to get full 3"? Have any pics.?

    Hey guys ive got a couple of questions to do with the front lift of my truck. So right now I have a revtek spacer lift that the PO installed and I want to upgrade for more travel. So I'm thinking about going with the OME 883 springs and I was wondering what shock should I use? Toytec specifies the OME 9004 shock but they are kind of pricey. Are there other shocks that work? I know a lot of people like the adjustable 5100s but if I don't plan on adjusting my lift with the shock (only the spring) are these necessary? Another question is could I run the stock shocks with the 883s without the shocks being the limiting factor for travel? I can get a set with really low miles on them for basically free. I'm going with the 883s because I am building a flatland 4x4 plate bumper and will eventually be putting a winch up there. Any info would be great. My truck now sits with a 3 inch lift up front and a two inch lift in the rear with Toytec Adjustable shackles. My truck is a 95 Tacoma 4x4 ext cab v6 manual tranny.

    Hello. Purchased some Bilstein 5100 adjustable front shocks to level my 2014 prerunner. What is the stock height difference between front and back? Thanks.

    57 pages wow. The questions have been slowly unanswered over time. If you have questions the answers are already here. I'm deciding what to get for a lift as well but I will be reasonable and just read. It's a matter of opinion and understanding of the intended use. Goodluck!

    Top spacer. Be careful if your wheeling hard the shock could fully extend before you hit the bump stop.

    I'm thinking about getting the 5100 settings it @ 0 with 885. Is it bad if I were to get the 1/4" top plate spacer to get the full 3" lift?

    Does anyone know the actual coilover size for stock replacement coilovers on a first gen 6 lug? Not the spring, like 2.0x8 inch? or what the stroke of the shock is?
