Another Bilstein 5100 question

I'm about to pull the trigger on 5100 all around and 1" spacer in the back. Which spacers are recommended/good quality? Cornfed?

I have 1" Cornfed spacers for sale. They are brand new and have never been used. I bought them thinking that I would pair them up with my Bilstein 5100 at 1.75. I since changed my mind and will be going with the 2.5 setting and no longer need the spacers. PM if you are interested.
 
My old setup. 5100 with 884 and 895E unloaded in top picture and loaded with about 160 pounds of gear in bottom picture. Mine lowered a bit when it settled. I'd say it yield a 2.5" front lift.



I'll get some more side shots of my rig with the 895E and 883+10mm spacer setup for all of you guys but those post is super helpful to those out there wondering! +1

Here's a useless side shot because the driveway is not flat. But yeah I'm very stoked on this 2" lift. Super rad. Super practical & super capable.

I know these are not 5100 but the price for the B8 5160 rears is pretty cheap right now on amazon just in case anyone wants the shocks. I think amazon priced it wrong. Go check it out.

Price is $93.53+ $9.49 for shipping.

From a company that "just launched".... Not sure how trustworthy that'd be.

You're pretty protected on Amazon so maybe someone give it a shot!

It says it won't fit a 2015 4runner trail premium. How's that possible? I'm thinking about snagging these at this price since their the same as 5100's
 
I ordered from them today as well, though I got the 33-187174 rears ($60.86 each) and the 24-196499 adjustable fronts ($70.09 each) for a total of $261.90 with free shipping. Got the "Your items have shipped!" notification within an hour or two of purchasing.

The stock Amazon prices were pretty good for these, and I saved a good $100 on top of that by going with Modern Muscle. With Amazon backing it up, seems like a good risk to take. Also, I checked them out online and they seem to be a legit business that is just getting into the direct retail side of things.

Looks like t4r had their way with modern muscle racing. All sold out. Now let's hope it was legit.

Yeah I also checked out there website and they seem legit. I just checked Amazon and they are sold out. Well just have to wait and see when we get the product in. Mine has shipped and expected to receive it on March 16. I will take photos and let you all know.
 
I'm still trying to decide my set up too.. I like the idea of the bills stopping the breaking nose dive so I may go this route instead of the 2.5/1.5 spacer set up I originally wanted.. I'd prolly do bills at 1.75 though and then the 1"CF rears.. pretty common and works.. what's the take after 1 1/4"?

Looking forward to pics! I like the black rims a lot

I went back and forth for about 10 days of .85 in front and no spacers or this set up. Very happy I went bigger and the ride is much nicer!

I dont see them on there for that anymore. I dont see any listings from Modern Muscle anymore. They all seem to be from Bilstein.
