Both great, sounds like you’d do well with boosting B6. Sporty and an upgrade without being harsh. We have them on my wife’s c5 Vett and she likes them
I have recently installed new front shock absorbers Bilstein b4 together with top and bottom mounts. car drives like new, before it was kind of scary on the highway, wobbly and unpredictable. now suspension is sturdy, reminds me of tesla model 3 driving, you feel bumps,but car is kind of sporty,strict,even at 130 kmh. already driven 1.5 k km on new suspension, no problems so far
the Cayenne just had an engine out re-seal + timing chain job, is already deleted, and had the suspension replaced with GTS springs + F/R sway bars and Bilstein B6 at 160K miles.
Zimmerman Drilled Rotors
-EBC Yellowpads
-Bilstein B6 DCC Shocks (replaced at 97K miles)
I’ve had great results by simply driving it. Regular oil change intervals and fix any thing that breaks
What I’ve replaced so far:
Alternator
All the idler pulleys and serpentine belt
Upper control arms (old man emu)
Bilstien shocks and springs
Front Wheel bearings.
Front brake rotors (upgraded to the bigger v8 4Runner rotors and calipers
3 new sets of calipers.
Rear brakes. Rotors pads and e brake shoes
Stainless Brake lines.
I deleted the X-REAS on my wife’s Limited 4Runner and switched to the OME BP-51s . Did the same thing for her best-friend’s Limited 4runner and swapped it to Bilstein 5100’s. Both worked fine.
Lots of talk on this sub and on chevybolt.org about Blistein B6 shocks. Many say it improves the ride quality.
My full list for my 2 inch lift on my 2013 :
Bilstein 5100s , OME 2886 , JBA Off Road High Caster Upper Control Arms , and Ironman 4x4 Medium Duty Leaf Springs
I have a 460 and I did the 6100/5100 combo. The front dives HARD during aggressive breaking, so much so that I worry about the safety of it. But otherwise it rides nice and feels really good on and off road.
Service writer gave me a ticket for Bilstein front and rear shocks on a 17 tundra, had to rebuild the front struts with the new set. I assumed it was the oem replacement... There's a small snap ring on the shaft of the shock that adjusts the spring seat (also the spring seat in this picture is installed upside down, something I too figured out the hard way).
