    Does anyone have a suggestion for an upgrade on the rear shocks for my '02 tundra with TRD package? I tow a trailer constantly . The stock bilsteins weren't bad but I need a little more. The truck is stock and is RWD. I'm not wanting to spend a lot on them and appearance is not a consideration.

    Look in to the OME rear shocks. They are sturdy and could be used in 1-3 inch rear lift.

    Bilstein HD, or the 5160 with reservoir are much firmer than stock

    Got the Bilstein HD ones on mine also (though I have air bags & Daystar Cups)...the HD ones definitely helped a lot....If I remember right I got them through "Shock Warehouse" on the web. Tow a couple thousand pounds on a regular basis and a few times a year tow trailers up to about 6k#.
