Yup, sure did. Install was very straightforward; didn't have any issues. Referred to my Bentley manual for the basic procedures and torque settings and went to work. Ended up installing new Bilstein Touring Class dampers front and rear and the ride is back to normal. (FWIW, I actually called Bilstein before purchase and the rep I spoke to said they were valved the same as the originals.) To me, the ride feels exactly the same as when I first bought the X5. I'm very pleased with the results so far. I haven't done an alignment yet as I am planning on also doing new tension struts and ball joints first. Hope to get that done over the next couple of weeks.
