Anyone know what brand (Toyota, Tokico, Bilstein etc..) of shocks come standard with the 2017 SR5 4x4 crew cab w/towing package? My 2007 SR5 4x4 Access Cab w/towing pkg came with Bilsteins originally.Shocks are painted black on my 2017 and Bilsteins are normally Blue and Yellow. Thanx in advance.
 
Did not know that Hitachi made shocks for vehicles - first I have heard of this. Good quality? Any known issues or problems to date?? Wii swap out to Bilsteins next. Thoughts?

Get the 5100's. Huge difference over the 4600's...

The main difference between the Bilstein 4600's vs Bilstein 5100s is that the 4600 series is designed for stock height trucks and the 5100 Series is built for lifted or lifting trucks. If you plan on keeping it stock you don't need the 5100's. They are basically the same shock at stock height.
 
If you think you might ever want to lift the truck get the 5100's new they aren't that much more than the 4600's. You can find gen3 off-road 4600 take offs on Craigslist for cheap if you don't have the coin.
