Installation Suggestion

If you're installing like me on a 1st generation Tacoma with the retainer ring set to maximum height, you'll find that screwing the bottom of the strut is difficult if not impossible. align manually. You can attach a wrench to the swingarm, put a tube on the wrench for leverage, and use a helper or weight to push the swingarm down to line things up for screw insertion, and then use a screwdriver and a hammer knock on the screw through.

Pros
  • Quality Construction
Cons
  • Drill Kit

Bilstein or bankruptcy! for spare parts

With the ring set to maximum, I increased the ground to wing clearance from 34.5 to 38.5 inches. So I would say it's 2-2.5 of the level. The lowest setting is Level. Put a 1 inch block of 5100 in there too. The truck looks amazing and is perfectly aligned with no UCA required. There were some minor issues with the 32 when folded and rotated at the same time. Removed about 1" from the rear and moved the fender flares back to match the Presto Mundo! ... The truck now handles better than a stock…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Expandable

Unauthorized seller Bilstein

So I bought the set. I was able to find an open one. Okay so the parts are from the Amazon warehouse and although the parts arrived undamaged the bushings were missing. **NOTE** Revain is not an authorized Bilstein dealer and will not deal with you if you have any problems. They claim that Amazon deals in questionable parts and mostly sells a product that is not actually a Bilstein product. Looks real, stamped and etched like a Bilstein product. All I needed were jacks. No, I had to go back to…

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Compatibility
