Hello all,
I want to replace the front shocks on my 1994 HZJ73 and I am leaning towards these Bilstein 5160’s. All the specs line up to work well except for the bottom eyelet size.
I am out of town right now and away from my Cruiser so I can’t measure the bottom eyelet size, but internet...
I have a new never mounted Bilstein 6112 Coilover set for 4th Gen 4runner.
These were bought in 2021.
The Kit number is: 47-260153
The strut part number is: 24-260169
The spring part number is: E4-FD1-Z005B50 - 600LB spring rate.
You reuse your OEM top hat and rubber isolator. Comes with...
Just placed an order for custom 5 inch lift springs from Alcan spring. Going from a Rancho 2.5 inch lift that sucks I’m excited to feel the difference in ride quality and flex!
Will the Bilstein shocks designed for a 4 inch lift kit work with a 5 inch lift kit or do I need longer shocks?
I...
In excellent condition, used for about 600 miles. Great shocks, got my hands on Kings so these are up for sale. Originally had OME when I first got my rig, these were much better.
$825
Last year I researched my shocks to put all the way around both my Toyota Land Cruiser 100 Series and my First Generation Toyota Sequoia. I thought I did due diligence and chose Bilstein 4600s for the Land Cruiser and rear end of the Sequoia, and 5100s for the Sequoia front end. They made an...
I recently purchased a 79 fj40. The po installed hfs 4” lift springs with 4” hfs shackles. He also reversed the front springs. It had no shocks. CCOT no longer sells the shocks that went with this package. I want to install Bilstein 5100 series shocks but do not know which ones to get. Does...
One Bilstein 24-235310 damper on my 2014 LC started leaking after 100k+ miles. These were discontinued in November and I've been unable to find them in stock anywhere. They've been great and I hate to change brands or go to a smaller piston. Anyone have a pair laying in a corner of their garage...
Hey all,
I have a pair of low milage Bilstein 5100: 33-185606 rear shocks. 0-2" lift. They didn't fit my early 40 but will fit later cruisers. Early 40s use the "front shocks" both front and rear. lesson learned. These are great shocks and I am very happy with them on my rig.
$100 plus...
Hey all,
Left the 4runner gang and traded for a '73 40 series. Who wouldn't accept that trade?
The 2nd previous owner converted the 40 to SOA with a 4ish" lift with some god awful 3 pack leaf springs and es9k procomp shocks. Let's just say your grandpas old John Deere tractor rides better...
‘74 FJ40
A few years ago I wanted to redo the suspension and add a little lift to my 74. A friend had his done by Brian at BTB in ‘97, back when they were still in San Jose. I convinced myself I wanted the same setup: reverse shackles, spring over, Rancho RS 9000’s, etc. I had the work...
Anybody know if these will fit a 100 with 1-2" lift? The lengths seem in line with other offerings.
Bilstein website says 5/8" hourglass eye bushing (not sure if that's what we have) and top stem mount.
Seeing a few lengths in 2 valving rates... the ones below caught my eye.

On my '07 GX470 with 105k miles, I am replacing failing OEM shocks with Bilstein 5100's.
The shop that's doing it for me is telling me I have to replace the airbags with springs at the same time. Is that true? Is there some reasonable argument why it's better to convert the whole system all at...
I'm intrested to know if anyone has installed the 6112/5160 shocks on the GX460?
From what I gather, the 4runner versions would fit, but I'm curious about the weight difference. The GX is roughly 5,100 lbs vs the 4,750 on a 4runner.
Does the weight difference merit a higher spring rate than...
Not sure if im understanding this correctly but it appears there are very few options for getting longer travel shocks from our 100's. It seams most are limited to handle 1.5" - 2" lift and maintain enough drop.
If you have lots of $$$$$ and need a lift for 140MPH baja runs " sarcasm everyone...
Selling a set of Bilstein HD 4600 for 100 Series. Shocks work great, just went a different route after lifting. These are great alternative to OEM that provide a more planted ride.
Installed these new in February 2017 and have since put on about 12k miles.
All necessary hardware included...
I am selling my 1995 FZJ80. I love the truck and it has no issues, but I have too many vehicles and I am trying to consolidate down to one vehicle that has what I want. I bought it stock from Ohio in OCT 2015 and shipped it to FL where I was living. Now I am living in Harrisburg, PA. Clean title...
I am selling my GX470 Sport because I am buying a house and don't want the expenses of three cars. I bought the truck from Ohio and I don't think previous owners took care of it how I do based on undercarriage surface rust.
The truck has 121XXX miles and I have spent more than 8K in maintenance...
SELLING THE STOCK FRONT BILSTEIN COILOVERS, REAR COILS, AND UCA'S FROM A 2013 FJ CRUISER. ONLY ABOUT 15K MILES ON THE SUSPENSION PARTS BEFORE I UPGRADED TO AN OME LIFT. ALL PARTS ARE IN GREAT SHAPE, MY FJ CRUISER HAS BEEN BABIED AND HAS BEEN PRETTY MUCH A MALL CRAWLER. ASKING $180 FOR THE WHOLE...
Removed these parts when I replaced everything with ICON Shocks and Metaltech Torsion bars.
I've got:
(2) Bilstein 4600 Series 24-027397

Landcruiser stock springs and torsion bars. (I thought these had been upgraded and provided a slight lift but I'm not...
