Good day all,

Could someone please give me insight. In South Africa Billies are hella expensive and I can get them directly from Germany

I see on 4wd direct they specify the B46-1004LT as the rear shock for raised applications

Is this exactly the same shock as 24-010047 for HJ/FJ 60,61,62, 70, 75 in the front?

This would make my life much easier

Mu gutt just tells me to worry. The 60-70 series had cast iron block engines in the front? So this shock will be very hard valved? Comments would really be appreciated

Have you had a look at the suspension database here on PP?

Hello, I could not find what Im looking for but maybe I need a head slap

The suspension database contains 120 and 150 series components only.

So Im not closer yet, urgh
the question is, is the B46-1004 vs B46-1004lt vs BE5-2351 similar in rebound and bump rate

While we are here,( sorry to dig up an old thread in advance) I have been researching about bilstien shocks for a lot longer than i care to admit. So far on the Bilstien Australia site, The shocks for a 90 series Prado and a 3rd GEN Hilux Surf/4 Runner VZ180 are identical (BE5-2450M front and BE52451M rear). https://www.bilstein.com.au/find-par...2&car_type=573

However...On the international catalog its different. There the 90 series is recommended (BE5-2778 front and BE5 2741 in the rear) and same as above for the Hilux surf/4Runner.

All the shocks are OE replacement for standard ride height. Does any one have a clue whats going on or some resources with specifications on these parts like length and travel ?
