2nd look at 03 Tacoma front suspension

Well Kurt, you obviously did something wrong. Used the wrong coils or the wrong shocks, probably both. You sell OME, why would you praise anything else. You would like to sell you OME.

Welcome back after a year and a half . For the record, we sell a our share of OE Toyota parts and buy Bilstein wholesale as well, we use them on the majority of our Land Cruiser SOA conversions (mine included). I give praise where it is due. Perhaps I used the wrong combination, I'll not argue that. Here are the components I used:

F4-BE5-D558-TO
Left Coil Part Number: 48131-AF100
Right Coil Part Number: 48131-AF090
OE Top Plates & Isolators

After a couple of months they had settle to an appreciable amount of rake so I added a 1/2" top-out spacer as an interim. However the interference at full droop was evident with and without the spacer though obviously worse at full droop with the spacer. The springs were softer/shorter than I liked with my needs. My Bilstein/Tundra setups went to a 4Runner owner and he was happy with them.

Would you care to answer this:

"In that case, will you confirm as to whether or not your Bilsteins are different than the parts being sold by other vendors i.e. RCD? Can you tell us what is different (obviously I'm not asking you to divulge proprietary info but do you change the dampening rate? Change in overall length? I'm an engineer, "better" doesn't sell me on anything... numbers and explanations do"
