Here's one of the few sites that lists Bilstein specs http://www.marlincrawler.com/suspension/shock-equip/bilstein-5125-series

Whoa.. whoa.. is that a Nissan touching a Toyota?

Thanks Drew. I ended up ordering them from Downsouth (Sonny was really helpful) and got the 10" stroke 5125s. Should be good to go on the rear set-up now.

LOL, you know I was wondering how long it would take before somebody saw that!

That is pretty impressive flex, we should have measured how far that tire was off the ground.

How do you make a toyota look more badass, park a nissan next to it

Next time you go out to BVORR you should put it on the ramp and score, I would be interested to see what it actually scores.

 

[yotarob]

How do you score it?

Let me look it up real quick

I didn't score my truck on the ramp at BVORR, didn't have a measuring tape, but took a few pics while on the ramp.

Through the power of geometry I can calculate your score based on these 2 pics

 

[taco4x4rar]

By scaling the pics using your tires as a reference (using the goodyear stated size of that tire) Looks like you did better than a stock tacoma about a 500 going up forward and about 520 backward assuming that is a 20 degree ramp.

Well god damn it had damn well should be better than a stock Tacoma.

But you are still beaten by a bone stock K5 blazer ramp wise.

Yes indeed, it's what I do at work everyday

Damned the luck, I was this close to getting a K5. If only I had known.

Who doesn't want a fucking 9 mpg rust bucket?

Maybe Randy's geometry is a little off

I feel sorry for the people he surveys for.....

New UCAs from Built Right, I'll be installing those sometime soon.
