Fitting bilstein b4
« on: 21 May 2013, 10:18 »
I've got my hocks and springs now, also got some polybush top mounts. what exactly do i need from the existing shock? Is it est to get new parts or are the originals gonna be ok? done 130k.

Thanks

if memory serves me correct, the only thing you`ll need is the top srping cup (sits on top of polybush).. not 100% sure, been a long time.
it`ll become obvious once you start fitting though.

I'd get new bearings and bump stops. Dust boots will probably be ok
