I'm running a 96 Hilux solid axle with rears up front and new shock towers. I'm torn between the 7100s short body and the 5165. As far as I can tell the 5165 has rubber mounts and a digressive piston vs the 7100s with a heim joint and linear piston and also rebuildable/revalvable. The Ute is a daily driver but also sees a fair bit of dirt tracks and beach work. I realise the linear piston might have less on road handling but I'm adding a sway bar at the same time to make up for that. I'm running a 3uz V8 in it so I do get a bit of speed up offroad hence leaning towards remote res. At this stage I'm heading towards 7100s, should I pull the trigger or am I missing something?
