I went with Bilstein 6112's up front and 5160's in the rear. Leveled the front and went one clip position up on the driver's side because Taco lean. After breaking in, the rear sags ever so slightly. It rides great, though!
Same shocks on my 18 platinum. Really helped with the rear end hop; feels more planted too, generally.
Just installed Bilstein 5100 Shock absorbers on my ‘18 Platinum. The truck takes those harsh bumps much smoother now and the silver shocks add a great look to my trucks Black/silver theme.
I run bilstiens, my last set was installed on my tacoma at 245k, i now have 295k and they still ride pretty decent. Im not easy on it either, regularly off roading, pulling 4klb trailers, hauling firewood, stone, scrap metal etc.
Get Bilstein 5100 series shocks and call it a day, best ones I’ve used off road and still comfy for on road use
I have them on my k2500 suburban and they’re great. It’s much nicer to drive and helped things feel more planted when towing.
I have Bilstein on the rear of my 19 now and love how smooth they are.
I LOVE the 5100s on my '20 Z71. The Ranchos had almost zero damping. Going over speed bumps at my kids' school used to cause the truck to wallow around for a second or two before settling down. There's none of that now with the 5100s. It really does feel like a different truck. Very planted.
I’m stock for now, and probably only going to upgrade to some entry/mid-level Bilstein.
Bilstein B4s are cheaper but fail significantly faster.
