I'd recommend Truck Toyz 1-888-776-8699......talk to Marty or Kevin.

I'm not sure on the part number since I think it's still a reworked shock....they'll know the part numbers though.



Hope this helps.

I got mine from Marty also.

If you just want the shocks and if Bilstein is selling that model number with that valving now. You might try shox.com. Thats where I bought my 7100's.

They are 5100's... but I understand they were valved by or for DR specifically for use as dual stabilizers.

There is someone here in this forum who has them mounted using a less expensive bracket. I can't think who it is right now..... maybe hirolln?

Yeah, they are 5100s that originally are for a different vehicle and then they are reworked to be setup properly to be run as a dual opposed stabalizer..........eventually (no idea when this will happen) they will come with that valving from the factory and not need to be reworked.

Same shock on each side....valved the same, which they have to be to work properly in a dual opposed setup.

I have them and use the BDS dual bracket. They are the 5100's. They give a great steering feel over bumps while turning. No steering wheel kickback what-so-ever and at the same time not being stiff.
