Oh my god thank you so much! Not only was the video to the point without endless rambling but it literally is exactly what I was looking for to solve the same issue with my 4th gen 4runner

Good video for early Bronco owners with the 3/4 shank on the rear upper rear shock mount. If you are using modern style shocks like Bilstein 7100 etc. you'll need to do this conversion or buy aftermarket shock mounts with the 1/2 inch shank. Great vid!

If you have larger 12 point sockets those will work. I used a 12 point deep 1 1/8 socket and my harbor freight ball joint press and got it out in like 5 seconds with a impact. Then you just smash it back in with a vice or your c clamp or press

your shock bolt is 3/4 inch or 1/2 inch? wondering because a Tacoma bolt is 13mm and that is close to 1/2 inch. but did you use the steel collar/spacer outta the old bushing?

Man, I wish I knew. I’d have to go research. The shocks are for a tundra as ordered. Not sure what year. Which would tell me that tundra bolt is smaller. Not sure about the Tacoma. I now have a Tacoma, so when I replace the shocks someday I’m sure I’ll have that same question.

How did you know what bushing to go with for your truck? My F150 with the Bilstein 5100's needs a bigger eye bushing.

Never seen that before.. I’m also a 3rd gen owner, but forgive my confusion. Why would you replace the bushings? Not sure if you touched on that...thanks

Hugo S. Yeah, no problem. Those 5100 read shocks are for tundras (i think), so the stock bushing it comes with is 1/2”, we need 3/4” for our 4runners for the shocks to fit. I had read about that as well on the 4runner forums, so I knew I would need to replace the bushings, but once i had the supplies, i didn’t know how to get the installed 3/4” bushings out... They were “stamped” in, so it took some force beyond my hands to get out. I need to add, these slightly longer shocks will only work with our 3rd gen 4runners if you also are replacing the stock rear springs with longer springs... that’s what this project was... I had the infamous 4runner rear sag.. I installed new ARB 2906 Old Man Emu springs and these bilstein 5100 shocks... Once installed it gave the rear a great look.. check out the forums online for this mod. Lots of info out there.

I know it's been a long time, but do you remember the part number. I know the inside diameter is 3/4 do you know the outer diameter and length in inches. I'm currently doing the same thing for my 99 4runner.

89hatcher this was for my 98 4runner, but I’m not sure if the “as shipped” 5100 busing that I removed was good for a tundra. Wish i could answer that for ya.
