I am looking for the part number for the front adjustable Billy 5100s and the rear 5100s for the 2010 TE. I tried to order some from Wheelers Offroad and they said they don't have them for the 2010. So I called Bilstein and they told me that they don't make them for the 2010 yet and could not confirm if the '09s will work!

I see members here have installed them.....and Toytec lists them for sale with their kits, so can anyone help me out here and give me the part numbers they used? Are they same for the '09?

Thanks.

From reading around here, and hearing from Tacoma and FJ owners... it's the same part number for all of them.

# BE5-C477-T0
OR
# BE5-C475-H0

Both of those part numbers are for the same shocks, just different depending on who you order from.

Just out of curiousity, do you have KDSS?

Also, I bought my Bilstein's from ShockWarehouse.com (best price I could find). They have the same front's listed for both the FJ Cruiser and the Tacoma (475's). If you search the site by vehicle and use the FJ Cruiser, those are the exact shocks I got for my 4th Gen after my XREAS finally died.

No KDSS here.....didn't do enough research before buying my 4runner and the dealer insisted the only way to get it was with navigation, which I think was around a $4k package. I wish I would have found more info so I could get one with KDSS. Based on everything I have been hearing about on and off road, I would have def added that option.

Out of curiosity, those that have the 5100s in the rear, with stock height, do they stiffen up the rear? Do they sit any higher than stock at all? (even though they are for stock ride height)
 
Definitely let us know what they do for your ride quality.

Stiffer shocks will not give you any ride height difference, only coil springs (or spacers) will do this for you.
 
Thanks, thats what I figured but wanted to make sure since I am a novice off-roader...I hope to have a full set here this week and then have them installed on Nov 1st when I have my headers installed. Not sure if I will have a set in hand by then though, I am having a hard time finding them in stock at a decent price. I will def post regarding the difference as well as the headers (harper7 posted some good info on the DT headers).

Looks like I am gonna go with setting #2 (.85" lift) since I currently have 1.5" of rake from front to rear (empty) and I typically carry 150+ lbs of gear in the cargo area. That makes the rear suspension compress .5 inch.
 
Does anyone know the Bilstein 5100 part number for the rear shocks? Are they the same as the 07+ FJ rear 5100's?
 
I purchased front and rear 5100 Bilstein adjustable shocks for my '06 tacoma when I had it and never installed them. I've heard that these fit the 4th gen and am wondering if this will work on my 5th Limited? If so, will both front and rear work?

Front#: F4-BE5-C477-TO
Rear# : F4-BE5-C478-TO

Most Limited models have XREAS suspension, which has lines and stuff going to the shocks. Unless you want to disable all that, no aftermarket shock will work at this time.

Thanks homeyclaus. So, say if I dont have XREAS or no longer want it, will these 5100's fit? I've read some say that the part numbers are different, but they are the same part. Can anyone confirm?

The rear for Tacoma will not work for the 5th Gen 4Runner. The part # for the rear is F4-BE5-E703-H0 for 5th Gen 4runner
