Bilstein 5100s and stock 99 Tall Coils?

[octanejunkie]

Wheeler's Offroad has the shocks for $175, and FREE SHIPPING TODAY only

I have a set of 4WD OEM front coils on the shelf with about 90K on them

Adding an ARB bumper soon, and a winch in the future, and might need to level out the front end

Anybody have an opinion/experience with installing 99 tall coils on a new set of D558 5100's?

D558

Hello , from what I have read and believe me it has been quite a bit.
It seems to me that the tundra bilsteins are the better bet for a rig with armor. Where as the 4 runner bilsteins are better for none. As far as the 558’s they are not recommended for our vehicles. They were developed for the Tacoma in a more race application. These are also paired with the 99 talls.
You can check out Traben 27 build thread and also the 4K beast build thread
Around page 15 should have some useful information
Hope this helps. Ray M.

Thanks for the reply @R_Marra I think I'll wait until my bumper is on and see how it rides and behaves, and do more research in the mean time.
