These are great. The difference from the stock shocks is so noticeable. So glad I did this upgrade.
Installed these new Bilstein 5100 on a lifted 2019 4Runner and what a difference they made in the handling. Even helped with some of the nosedive so common on 4Runners.

A: Don’t buy these. Super stiff rideÂ

A: It's for both rear shocks. They're good! I've put them through hell in the sand dunes a dozen times now along with one Michigan winter roads season. I don't like the boot/bellows that cover the shafts because they hold on to moisture and debris which can't be good for the seal. I solved this by removing the boots and installing Daystar 2.0 shock guards (Fasten around the bottom with a nylon zip-tie once your tapped the holder piece on with a plastic deadblow hammer. I think the Daystar guards were less than $30 with shipping. All good now!

While the ThyssenKrupp Bilstein Company began as a German enterprise, Bilstein shocks are developed and manufactured in Hamilton, Ohio. Bilstein develops and fabricates premium quality monotube shock absorbers directly for automobile manufactures, aftermarket outfits and motorsports applications. The precision and craftsmanship in manufacturing that fueled company growth in Germany were brought straight to the factory in Hamilton, Ohio. The factory includes an engineering department, rigorous shock testing facility and a motorsports track. The track allows the engineers to tweak their designs in response to real world testing during development. The rigorous testing allows for designs to go through a machine simulated life of a shock absorber in all kinds of terrain conditions. The resulting products promise the highest in performance.
