Call ORW in San Diego, they are probably one of the biggest Bilstein distributers, Also try Kartek or McKenzies.

I have a brand new pair (retaining strappy things still on them), that I would consider swapping for (NEW) 12" 5100s, if you can come by a set of them (not sure if there's an issue with them too).

My 14" are a little too long, and packaging 12" shocks would be easier. Lemme know asap, as I'm going to be mounting them before the weekend if all goes well.

I went through this a couple weeks ago, and couldn't find ANYBODY with 5100s, and most had no clue when they might be able to get some. I finally went with some 5150s from C&R. Just a little more to worry about mounting with that resevoir.

These suckers are hard to find, so I just placed an order through Larry (TJFan) at Mad 4 wheel drive. He is a great guy and help me alot, I recommend him to anyone who is beating their head against a wall trying to locate parts. Thanks everyone who helped me, T.
