Off with the King's, on with the....?

[tplane2]

Time to sell the ride. 2005 Sport/V8 with some suspension upgrades. Looking for a replacement for the King C/O Remote Resi's I have on there now.
I'm in Hawaii and nobody seems to appreciate the value of them out here, so I'm gonna pull them.

Thinking the Bilstein 5100s so I dont have to swap the Trail grapplers I have on there now.
Question is: It seems like the 5100s dont have the upper hardware to mount the shock to the bucket. I threw away my factory shocks when I did the swap.
Can anybody verify this?

Open to suggestions for other options if you got em.

Thanks!

True, the 5100s do not include the top hat with the 3 bolts.

Rock Auto sells the strut mount for right around $30 each with all the needed hardware.

If you are just getting rid of the truck just put a set of the Monroe quick struts (per assembled kit) and some eBay suspension spacers. $112 for spring, shock & top hat all assembled.

If you want top hats, I have 2 OEM ones I can sell. PM me if you're interested.

I thought I needed them and bought them, then picked up some struts that included top hats so they've been sitting around until someone needs them. Great condition.

Thanks for the help guys. Looks like the hats are what I need. I'll have to find some hardware to go with them.

The Kings are FOR SALE! Ha!



EDIT: Rockauto like the above poster said. Thanks again.
