So i bought a set of LC 8 wraps and I was planning on running the Bilstein 5125 shocks with them. I went to purchase the shocks and there are many different model numbers. The numbers look like this: 33-230382.

I went to the Bilstein website and searched for my 99 T4R and the 5125 shocks didn't even come up as an option.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Dont look for shocks for a 4runner they are too short for what you wanna do. Look for lc80 shocks oem tokico are good.

When you search for your 4runner it only shows you limited stuff, not everything that will work, way too much to list. It shows original height replacement parts

I recommend tokico land cruiser rear oem shocks. They are longer and work great with those coils. If you really want billys than you need extended ones for the larger coil. Toytec used to sell them but now they offer there own rear extended shock. (2) TT-9602R - Toytec Rear BOSS Shocks - 96-02 4Runner

Does anyone have any experience with these shocks. I was hoping to stay with the Bilstein 5125s anyone have a part number for the extended ones I need?

Ok, so the tokico black land cruiser rear oem shocks are what's recommended. I've tried searching around and can't seem to figure out where to buy them. Also, does anyone know the length of the blacks or how I can browse some other options like the Bilstein?

Search some more. Email some toyota lift shops. Email toytec about Billy and Sonoron Steel about tokicos. I believe the tokico rear shock part # is 48531-69417. Make sure you double check that part # online that it's correct. If you wanted billy's out back I think you need tundra 5100s. Bilstein 5100 Tundra shocks with new .75" bushings for the bottom (they came with .5") - Rear Shock Part #: BE5-A014-H7. Think you need to swap the lower bushings. Read.http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/101758-**rickashays-ome-vs-trd-tundra-lc-review**.html

I'll add along with your 8 wraps and shocks you may need extended bump stops, extended brake line, extended sway bar links, adjustable panhard and or panhard lift/drop brackets.

Bilsteins tend to ride a bit softer on road and trail. LC coils will ride better on road, highway and with weight.
