Bilstein 5100s Upgrade the Toyota Tacoma

Bilstein is one of the most well known brands of shocks out there. You can find Bilstein's shocks on Baja race vehicles to trucks fresh off the assembly line with off road packages, so when Thura called in and let us know what he uses his new Tacoma for, we already had Bilstein in mind. How do you ride? Thura is a new firefighter working in the San Bernardino National Forest. His driving style includes fire road explorations to and from new campsites and driving up and down the mountain road to his home in Los Angeles. Some of the...

Bilstein 6112 install on a 2020 Ram 1500

We continue to preach how strut spacers just aren’t going to cut it for any kind of performance gains. When you put a strut spacer on top of the shock tower in order to gain some additional height in order to clear larger tires, you’re directly impacting the factory strut in more than 1 way. The spacer will cause the factory shock tower to be pre-drooped, which eliminates downtravel of the suspension equal to the spacer’s physical height. And the factory struts and shocks aren’t valved to handle a 25-50% increase in unsprung weight due to larger wheels and tires,...

Eibach Making Shockwaves

Eibach has always been in the shock game, but over the past few years they’ve made some serious inroads to light truck and SUV offerings. While being known as a coil spring powerhouse who supplies many of the biggest names in the industry, many dont know they also have an in-house damper (shock) design and manufacturing operation. Being able to oversee and develop a ride control product entirely in-house goes a long way in supporting each and every vehicle application that goes through the Corona, CA Eibach facility. If you’ve been used to the regular names in the industry who...

Bilstein 6112 60mm Install on a 2019 Ranger

The new 2019+ Rangers have some incredible punch! Fun to whip around, especially with that Ford Performance 50hp boost available to all the 2.4L engines out of the gate. If there’s one thing to be desired, its the suspension system in the dirt. The stock shocks just cant take any reasonable off-road obstacles at more than 20mph without bucking the truck in the front or rear. Need more damping! The Bilstein 6112 put a 2.6” shock within reach of more budgets, giving great adjustable front ride height on a beefy enough shock that can take tough off-road terrain much faster...
