Default ** Current part numbers for Bilsteins for the GX470 **

Can someone confirm the Bilstein replacement shocks which should be compatible with the GX470? I saw some in another older thread but the fronts were no monger available.

Rear ShockBilstein 33-1871742
Front StrutBilstein 24-2393702 - These are no longer available from some searches

The rears I see on Amazon but I cannot find that part number for the fronts. Does anyone have the part number for the fronts? Or confirm part numbers? I only want to replace the shocks/struts (non adjustable) but keep the air bags.


Do these Amazon items below work for a stock height 2008 GX470?

I called around off road shops and they confirm that the shocks in the link do work well in the GX470 for non-adjustable replacement. Of course they said other systems like Fox, etc. are much better for off road applications but this is only for street and occasional light off road use.

So I ordered a set along with spring compressors and will be installing next week if I get a chance. Anyone know if there is anything else I need for this swap?

By the way, they said any shock/strut for the 4Runner or FJ that are in the same year range/build should swap out/work with the GX470.
