Bilstein 2005-2023 Tacoma 8100 Bypass Rear Shocks

SOLD AS PAIR Bilstein's 8100 series are a direct fit, 2 tube external bypass. This lets you adjust your compression and rebound zone independently while providing a plush "ride zone". The engineering concept behind these is to give you the best ride comfort and handling on road, while also taming large suspension inputs off-road. During normal daily driving you have the control of the full size 60mm main piston, you can take your rig to work, pick up a load of gravel, or hit twisty mountain roads with maximum comfort and control.

The reservoir hose inlet on these are at the base of the shock, which delivers increased
