Suspension Shock Absorber Rear Right Monotube Toyota Tacoma 2004-1996 B8 5100 Bilstein

The Bilstein B8 5100 (part number 33-247717) is a direct-fit rear right shock built specifically for 1996–2004 Toyota Tacoma 4WD models running a 1–1.5" rear lift. Important before ordering: a minimum 1" lift block is required for this application — that's an engineered requirement, not optional.

The 46mm monotube design runs cooler and more consistently under repeated suspension cycling than a twin-tube unit. Its velocity-sensitive digressive piston stiffens progressively as inputs get more aggressive — controlled on pavement, capable on rougher terrain. Collapsed length is 14.07", extended length is 22.09", giving 8.02" of stroke. Both mounts are 19mm eye-style. Zinc-plated finish handles corrosion. The black bellows boot is included. No reservoir, non-adjustable — this is a direct-fit unit dialed in for this exact application.

Bilstein tunes each B8 5100 shock to the specific vehicle, not adapted from a universal platform. We stock this shock for SR5, Pre Runner, and Limited trim Tacomas within that 1996–2004 window. If your rig is already lifted and the factory rear shocks are worn, this is the replacement we point 4WD Tacoma owners toward. Backed by Bilstein's limited lifetime warranty.
