Product Description

The Bilstein B8 5100 front shock (24-249928) is a ride-height adjustable, direct-replacement monotube strut engineered for 1996-2004 Toyota Tacoma 4WD with coil-spring strut setups. It features snap-ring collar adjustments that deliver between 0 and 2" of lift, allowing owners to level their truck for larger tires or improved off-road clearance - all without spacers or modifying springs. The monotube gas-damped design and zinc-plated body ensure consistent performance and durability in varied driving conditions.

This front series offers a precise combination of factory mounting compatibility and premium ride control. Ideal for Tacoma owners who need enhanced stability and ground clearance without compromising ride quality. All required hardware is included for an easy bolt-on installation. Fitment confirmed through 2004; 2005+ Tacoma uses updated strut setup - 2025 coverage unconfirmed at time of listing.
