Thanks in advance!

Mine is a 4th gen and I went with 4600s and new FJ springs. I liked it, it was firmer than stock and felt very stable, however, the Bils are a little harsh, so after a few years I have installed the Dobinson IMS, they are less harsh and still provide great feel ... no nose dive with either. On the Bils, the 5100s give you a better way to level it up if you desire by using the spring perch clips, whereas with the 4600s you would need a 1/2 or1" spacer, I tried both and preferred the 1/2".
