Replacing Shocks w/Bilstein- Coils too?
Hello
Just ordered my Bilsteins... ended up getting them from weathertech.com for $75 front/$60 rear
What would the argument for/against needing to replace the coils/springs as well?
Thanks!

I just got Bils too and I just bought a new set of OEM springs since mine have over 90k on 'em and I wanted a fresh setup instead of mixing worn parts with new ones. I'd replace the springs if you're over 70k IMO and you plan on keeping your rig for a while.
I also ordered all new rubber pieces to be replaced too.

Duh,
I should have mentioned...
96 4Runner with about 56k miles.
I kept reading how great the Bilstein shocks were for the ride quality, so I decided to go for it.
Thanks
