I'm running Vogtland 55mm drop springs on Koni Orange STR.T shocks (daily driver) and the setup has ~50K miles on it thus far (OEM had 80K miles).
Owner reviews for shock absorbers
I have switched my Ranchos out to Bilsteins 6112 in the front and 5100s in the rear...
Bilstein 4600 at a minimum. Quality shocks make too big of a difference, you definitely get what you pay for.
The combo 6112/5100s ride much better than stock, although it was a bit firm to start.
I have 6112/5160. Rides well. Quite firm at first but that may have been new springs breaking in.
I had 6112s on my 3rd gen 4R and it drove awesome and felt planted (for a lifted truck). When I bought my 470 it came with 5100s already installed. It feels comparatively tippy/sloppy.
I have 6112 up front with 5100s for the rear. I have upgraded the springs that net me ~.5” lift after adding the RTT, etc. rides great - highly recommend.
Hi All, just crowdsourcing for good shock absorbers for Toyota Rush.
Currently I run fox on my GX and King on my LC. King is less comfy but way more planted.
Rock Auto had Monroe shocks & struts for $12 & $8/ea for it, so I bought new. Turns out that's what came out of the car and his weren't too bad but let's face it, they're garbage.
