'98 lift questions (from a noob)

[Zhehan]

I found the 890s on amazon and want to get the 5100s there too so I don't have to pay for shipping or anything.

Are these the correct 5100s?

Amazon.com: Bilstein 5100 Monotube Gas Shocks Rear Pair for 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner 4WD : Automotive

Yep. Those are the correct shocks for that application.

speaking from a budget stand point. for my setup i have the 890s and 5100s. Front setup was 5100 on 2nd perch with stock springs.

I did the diff drop and also replaced Lower Balls Joints to be save. All that new stress on old parts didn't sit well with me.

I'm happy with my choices. Then again i'm not a weekend overlander. I just wanted something other than stock appearance.

Hijacking a semi-recent semi-relevant thread with a noob question of my own (1997 4x4 SR5). I'm in the process of replacing my worn out stock suspension with 5100s front and back, with 906 coils in the back and reusing my stock 4x4 springs up front. I bought a pair of new front strut mounts from Wheeler's. The description for the front 5100s says to also buy this set of new stem washers and cushions, but when I look at the Application Data for them, it says 1998+ 4Runner. Are these what I need, or do I need something else? I plan to have a shop assemble the coilovers for me as I don't want to mess with that myself.

Thanks in advance for the help.
