About the cheapest place I've found to buy the real Bilstein's is www.bimmerparts.com.

I bought the shocks for my Mustang from him, and he was about $30 cheaper per shock than anywhere else I looked.

I wasn't sure if he sold truck shocks or not, but he apparently does. I just put my truck in there and four different part numbers came up.

B46-1772
B46-1140
B46-1139
B46-0257

Edit: Fixed my busted link.

I checked prices for my Dodge, this place seems pretty good - and free shipping is what it says: http://www.eshocks.com/

Yeah, where do you get the TRD Bilsteins? Can you get them for an 85 Runner?

It's interesting that the ZR2's also come with an OEM version of the Blisters. I don't know for a fact but I've heard quite a few peeps say that that the OEM version is softer and not quite as good as one purchased separately.
Hehe, I wonder if the TRD and ZR2 shocks are made to the same OEM spec.

anyone got a link to a shock chart? something with compressed and extended lengths and the mount types?

trying to figure out which 5100 part numbers would work w/ my 1.5" ball joint spacers and fj-80 cruiser coils. i've figured out the doetsch tech and rancho part #'s but i've heard the bilsteins are a much better shock
