1″ SPRING LIFT KIT WITH BILSTEIN B8 5100 STRUTS AND SHOCKS-GEN 3
$1,490.00
Northwoods Performance 1″ lift with the Bilstein B8 5100 series system. Using Bilstein’s brand new B8 struts with integral 1″ lift, and B8 rear shocks with 1″ lift, we incorporate our Performance Springs to provide incredible handling both on the street and off road. The front struts are 1″ longer in the lower body, increasing the distance from the spindle mount to the lower spring bucket, allowing the use of larger tires. In the front, the struts come fully assembled with our Performance Springs. In the rear we provide our Performance Springs with the B8 shocks with integral 1″ lift. (The front struts are 1″ longer in the lower body, increasing the distance from the spindle mount to the lower spring perch by one full inch, allowing more room for larger tires if desired.)

Installed this kit on my 2011 Rav4 V6 (100k miles). Road perfectly before, but after install several symptoms popped up. 1) a loud pop under compression (speed bumps) 2) shudder at 20mph. Both undiagnosable by 3 mechanics so far. This kit is good on paper but be ready to have an extra $1000+ on hand to throw into your suspension after the issues it will cause. No issues with the rear components, but the front is coming off. Not worth it in my opinion.

Ordered this for my 2010 Rav4 V6 4WD. It looks great and drives way smoother than the stock shocks/struts and springs, a total win/win.
I’m running stock 17’’ Limited trim wheels with 245/65/17 Falken Wildpeak A/T Trails. Before install my stock height was:
31 5/8 inches DF, 31 3/4 inches PF, 32 1/4 inches DR, 32 5/8 inches PR.
The new height is :
33 1/4 inches DF, 33 3/8 inches PF, 33 1/8 inches DR, 33 3/8 inches PR.
Overall ground clearance is 9.625” compared to 7.5” stock (+2 1/8 inches). The 245/65/17 tires are also exactly 1” taller than the stock 225s, which contributes .5” overall to that ride height.
