Dobinsons springs with Bilstein Struts.


how much are a set of bilstein struts? and whats the advantage with them?

http://web1.carparts-cat.com/default.as ... 02&31=4097

They are the best suspension set-up that I have experienced and can not mention one fault with them.

Oh other then the price. But inmo well worth it.

According to this website 190eu=$225 each.

Struts.

Koni # 8741-1394SPT 537mm open - 378mm closed.

Rear shock

Koni # 8040-1106SPT 460mm open - 287mm closed.

I have already discussed the ide of a cusom strut that takes a replacable cartridge using the OEM leg. I would have to supply these on an exchange basis though, as they cannot supply OEM leg, or Koni leg.
