Love your setup.
Do you have parts numbers for the bilsteins?

 

[FamCruiser]

Just bought a 05 GX needs shocks all around. Wanted to do bilsteins and maybe some 265 70 or 285 70 But i cant find any part numbers for the bilstein 5100s everyone is running. Can anyone help me out on part numbers?

Thanks!
Bought the Bilsteins from Wheelers Off Road, part #24-239370

Bilstein 5100 Height Adjustable Front Shock Pair (24-239370)

We have these in two different versions. We have the original BE5-C477-T1 (24-280785) shock that has been around for years (built by Bilstein exclusively for Race Car Dynamics) as well as the new 24-239370 available directly from Bilstein. Upon inspection, we found that these two shocks appear...

Unwilling to give up the ability to tow (I have a summer trip planned to pick up a BJ60 Cruiser) I opted for:

265/70/17 Toyo Open Country AT3's (LT/E rated)
FN Wheel reps 17x8 w/ 0 offset
No Lift, No rubbing so far.

I think this is a real winner of a combo that looks great and doesn't sacrifice much at all. Now I just need to find something to go on the center of the caps so they don't look so plain. A Lexus logo or something.

 

[FamCruiser]

I got mine all done. Perfect all around and plenty of power
Lt2857017
Bilstein adjustable 2nd notch from the top
New oem shocks with sensors

Air bag lift trick in back
Running boards removed
Cut very little plastic liner 4 inch squares front and back in the fronts
No lights
No cutting or hammering structure.

Made some changes to the rear. Rear setup is now long travel with Dobinson 677’s, extended brake lines, and custom valved Radflo’s and resi’s.

I need to let the rear settle a bit and then make some coilover adjustments on the front.

Looks killer. How much rubbing do you have?

Looks killer. How much rubbing do you have?

On the street not much, just a little bit of my body mount at full lock. I haven’t tested it offroad yet but I plan to cut off more of the body mount since they were originally clearanced for 285/70 at stock height and replace my LCAs since my oem bushings are shot. Should solve all the rubbing after that and an alignment.

You going with the offset LCA's?

After looking at hundreds of pics on here and elsewhere, we decided on Toyo AT3 285/70/17 SL. The wheels were not our first pic, but with product shortages and delays, these days it’s not what you want, but what you can get (or are willing to wait months for). In the end I’m happier with the Motegi wheels shown than our first choices. Wheels are 0 offset, and added a pic as I had a hard time envisioning how much they would stick out from the truck, and thought it might help someone else.

Looks clean with the roof rack delete.

Looks clean with the roof rack delete.

I have Front Runner rails up top so can add load bars when I need them. I often haul two canoes or a cargo box up top. I did not need a full rack for that so I like the removable option.

Rides really well, smooth and quiet. BFG's are grippy. Nice!
