    Does anybody have an idea when or if the Bilstein 5100 adjustable shocks will be available for the 2022+ tundras??

    Any reason a person could not combine this Toyota/Bilstein shocks/struts with a Dobinson 2" coil spring if they didn't want any more than 2" of front lift?

    Had my 2015 on the middle setting. Was just perfect for me. Tried contacting bilstein, no reply.

    Reviving an old thread, but it appears that there is now a new Bilstein 5100 offering for 22+ third-gen Tundras. The front part number is 24-329200 and is compatible with the factory spring offering an adjustable 0-2.3" lift and the rear part number is 24-329217. I wonder how different these are compared to the Bilstein offering in the 3" TRD lift kit.

    Thanks for that BBG. Had no idea these were an option.

    Currently non-lifted/ leveled truck guy here weighing options for when the 285/75/18's (skinny 35's) go on shortly.
    Can someone please confirm that this 10 year old YT video is a good explanation on the function and benefits of the 5100 adjustables? Anything else I should know?

    Prior to these becoming available, I was leaning in the direction of the 2" loaded struts from RC:

    Thoughts on pros/cons of either?
    THANKS

    i had 5100’s on a Ram 1500. For some reason i didn’t get a full level out of them despite being on the correct clip setting.

    currently running RC loaded struts on my tundra. They feel stock, have had no issues. 40k miles on them so far. I’ll likely do something a bit nicer when these need replacing, but overall they seem pretty good. Especially considering the price.

    I would suspect Bilstein's offering would be a nice reliable option for a slight level/lift. Fox now offers a 2.0 Performance Series coilover/shock set for the 22+ Tundra now that also is adjustable. The Fox setup comes with springs for the front already installed set for 2" of front lift.
