Shock absorbers Bilstein or GABRIEL

I lifted my other 2004GX470 with some Bilsteins and springs (in back). It rode also great. I sold it to my mom and she loved it and the ride.

I put Bilstein’s on my 16. First did the silver ones, forget the model. Those lasted 2 years. Changed those out to the uglier yellow with blue boots last summer. I like the ugly ones better.

I have the bilsteins and have no complaints. Thought they were a quality shock for the money. I really forget that I even have new shocks on the truck which tells me that they are doing their job well. Side note: I go on quite a few adventures with my truck, so the shocks get put through solid testing off road.

See vogtland springs and bilstein shocks. I used on mine and love em.

Stick to Bilstein, just put a set on my truck 10k ago. Rides a million times better

My dad's 2018 Tacoma has bilsteins and they felt great.

They are on most of my cars, i have never been let down by the yellow bilstein HDs.

I ran the bilsteins with h&r sport springs for 100km on my b6 cabrio (2004) Little stiffer then factory. But not unbearable at all.

Typical issues (my car had all of these save the throttle body): -Dampers are normally done by 80k miles -Front lower control arm bushings tear and fail

Bilstein B4s are cheaper but fail significantly faster.
