Which brand of shocks? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I need a new set of rear shocks, and not sure which brand to go with. The Bilstein HDs I put on my BMW are great on that car, but I don't want a more harsh ride in the 4Runner than I already have. Considering OEM, KYB as well.

Do you have stock springs or have you lifted it? If it's stock I'd just go with some OEM shocks or Monroe's.

Stock springs. All street and highway driving. Occasionally haul lumber. Prob will just go with OEM. Monroe not my favorite company.

I have the Beilsteins and they aren't that bad in town and great off road on rug board roads they are smooth as butter.

KYB's are the best for your needs. they even design in the rear end sag these trucks get with age!!
