    Looking for the part # for the Bilstein 5100 adjustable for the front !! For a 2020 Tundra Sport crewmax. Trying to level the front end and from what i been reading the shocks are better to do then the spacers ?? mostly street driving and some beach off roading

    Bilstein shocks, Tembren bump stops,
    Definitely a better choice than spacers. Ride quality is tops!

    Not many yet, mostly stock.
    Here you go and they look like this. I still need the strut coil springs which will be manufactured on Sept. 19th so the factory says.

    Yes. Use the factory spring. Move the perch up or down to get your desired height.

    You will need a spring compression tool. Lots of info on here. Do a search.

    The no spring compressor method is so much easier and less sketchy. Videos of it on Tacos online but same method applies to Tundras. I did it on my 4Runner and Tundra putting on 5100s.
