Bilstein Anybody

Just collecting some part #'s for mid winter modding.

I've got some camber plates somewhere in da house and since that area is gutted, might as well do the shocks

http://www.bilstein.com/mistore/ymm_...reYMM=storeYMM

I originally had these Bilstein part #s but I cannot pull them up anywhere
Left
VE3-A742H0

Right
VE3-A743HO

Did a search on the forums....anyone running Bilstein shocks/struts ?

They make great shocks..great performance, even better quality. KewlX5 replaced his with Bilstein around 100k with good results.

Good point, that's a very strong possibility.

dunno on the OEMS. I took a hard look at the ACS setup

- it was a b1$ch to get. Special order and then lead time from delivery. $$ to boot and I coudn't justify the value to $$ ratio

Still need springs as well........
