What Bilstein shocks on 2014 Taco Sport?

I'm looking to replace the shocks on my Taco
2014 Sport 4x4
Which Bilsteins came from the factory?
I did this on my 05 and don't remeber using a spring compressor, do i need one?
Also, any suggestions on where to buy?

Thanks

 

A simple google search - "The 2014 Tacoma TRD Sport came from the factory with Bilstein shocks. Specifically, these were Bilstein's B8 4600 series shocks, which are an Original Equipment (OE) grade part."

Another google search will show you where to buy.

 

Google isn't always right... They weren't 4600's. They were a shock that Bilstein made specifically for Toyota and just so happened to have the same color scheme. https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/trd-off-road-vs-bilstein-4600’s.646751/

That being said, 4600's are very similar (made to be a factory replacement) and about the same price as the OEM shocks, but technically are a slight upgrade. So that's often what people buy as a replacement.

 

Good to know, thanks for the info...

 

I did the google search and got the same results about 4600s
I knew they weren't from the factory but I get it now, they are a factory replacement
Wanted to make sure
Thanks
