Thanks all. Just to clarify, is there any reference/comparison info for the 5100s vs stock shocks when it comes to height? For example, if I was to install the 880 spring on a stock shock, I assume that gives me the listed 1.5" lift for stock weight. Is the bottom perch on 5100s the equivalent to stock shock height?

Yes, for the 4Runner specific version. The D558 Tacoma or Tundra version is a different ride height on the lower perch. If you are reading threads that are over 3 years old, they will talk about other 5100 options (the 4Runner specific ones were release in 2019, I think), which is why you might be getting confused.

I actually run my original 2WD front springs up a couple notches with a small top plate spacer to get max droop with the stock arms and the softest springs I can deal with. When I add a winch up front, I'll probably swap over to stock 4WD springs.

Makes sense, thanks. I’ve decided on 880 and 906. What’s the part number for the 4runner specific 5100s?

Sorry for slow reply, ended up in ER for 5 days, next surgery in 10 days to deal with blood clot shit! I greatly appreciate all the responses.

Why is this required before purchasing shocks…

Pretty sure those are Tacoma-specific (or maybe Tundra) product add-ons. The 4Runner-specific 5100 part numbers are:

- Bilstein 5100 4Runner front shocks (PN 24-248730)
- Bilstein 5100 4Runner rear shocks (PN 24-249966)

You’re right, I clicked on the d558/560 kit as I didn’t see another one on their website. Will keep looking or contact them.
