Bilstein (24-100144) 5100 Series Shock Absorber

Perfect fit for an 05 double cab tundra. Nice ride.

I live in Northern Canada and drive gravel roads and highways 90% of the time.As for installation this is by far one of the more challening top ends to mount with little room for hands but can be accomplished from the rear wheel wells. You will need an allen key to hold the top end of the mount and I do recommend a ratcheding boxed end 17mm wrench.After installing these shocks I immediately hit the roads intentionally aiming at every pothole at 35-50 km/hr. Compared to the OEM toyota shocks i see a big difference in ride quality. The shocks absorbed the potholes not feeling like they were bottoming out or bouncing.This is my initial review and will check back later to give another after highway speed loaded and empty testing.ThanksThe Shock absorbers continue to hold up however the rubber boot did not survive the cold harsh winter.Thanks

Two opened boxes, missing hardware kit and bushings.. wasted time again

High quality manufacturing, and decades of teaching pedigree reflects in these shocks. I'm really happy with how they perform on my 2004 Tundra SR5 Quad Cab. Improved the ride by making the truck handle better in any condition. Rock crawling, desert running, trail driving, and general road use slow and high speed. I definitely recommend them, especially if you're looking to raise the front end without creating suspension geometry issues. Worth the money, certainly more so than leveling pucks and you get new really good struts.

rides better than when new
