Bilstein Rear 5100 for 2006 2wd 4runner?

[john181]

Bilstein doesn't list a shock PN for rear of 2wd 2006 and up. Anyone done Bilstein rear shocks in a 2006 up 2WD? The Bilsteins are listed for 2wd up to 2005 only, not sure why. Did some searches but no luck, just want to be sure what I am getting into. My understanding is the HDs are valved the same as the 5100s, is that true? I did the 5100s in the front on the second position and got 2" net lift with stock springs. Sure took care of the front Rake/saggy look. Ride and handling are HUGE improvement, any doubts about ride quality from stock were gone, Wife is thrilled. Problem is I can feel how bad/worn the rears are now (110k stock Tokicos) and want to finish the job. Thanks!

I have an '05 & I used the BE5-E703-H0 shocks for the rear. I don't believe they would be any different for the '06 models. I am too lazy to search right now, but I am almost positive there are a few people here with '06+ models that have used these same shocks...

Thanks for your advice

Jtanner, I think you are right. Just want to be sure install goes well. I guess I will just have to email a couple suppliers and get their opinion.

I installed Bilsteins on the front & rear of my 06 two wheel drive about six months ago, big improvement.

Bought them from the Shock warehouse. These are the part numbers of the shocks I installed.

Fronts F4-BE5-C513-H0
Rears F4-BE5-C514-H0

Thanks for the PN DCT

And the feedback on your install in 2006 2wd. Don't know why Bilstein doesn't list the part, but I'm going to install same PN as you did. Appreciate the help.
