Description
Bilstein B8 5160 Rear Shock – 2005–2023 Toyota Tacoma is an application-specific Bilstein suspension solution for Toyota Tacoma 2005-2023. On this truck/SUV platform, damper control becomes increasingly important as tire size, accessory weight, payload and terrain demands increase. This product should be selected around the vehicle's actual ride height and load configuration rather than by series name alone.
Why Bilstein B8 5160 for This Application?
B8 5160 adds a remote reservoir to Bilstein's off-road-oriented monotube damper concept, increasing fluid capacity and helping manage heat during repeated suspension movement on rough roads, trails and loaded vehicle use. For the Toyota application shown here, Bilstein assigns this product to Rear, so the part should be chosen by both chassis fitment and suspension position.

Choosing the Right Bilstein Setup
On this truck/SUV platform, damper control becomes increasingly important as tire size, accessory weight, payload and terrain demands increase. This product should be selected around the vehicle's actual ride height and load configuration rather than by series name alone. If the vehicle has been lowered, lifted, converted from factory electronic suspension, or carries substantial added weight, verify that this exact Bilstein series and part number matches that configuration before purchase.
