Price for Sir Bilstein? 200 90

posted by  someone claiming to be Paul on  Sun Feb 25 11:10 CST 2001 [RELATED]

My mechanic says I will be needing new shocks soon. It's not bouncing yet like a yo-yo so it's not critical but I wanted to ask. What is a good price for 4 Bilsteins installed? Who has the best price on Bilstein shocks?

Paul

    I bought my Bilsteins from Turner Motorsports. Pretty good prices, and from what I see, the price for the rears came down somewhat since I bought my set. (They used to be $91 each).

    Here's the link: http://www.turnermotorsport.com/catalog/catalog_bilstein.htm

    I'm not affiliated to Turner in any way, just offering up another option.

    Good luck!

    Hi.

    Just curious. Is there such a big difference with Bilstein hardware?

    I just don't know. Thanks.

      Yves,

      The short answer is YES!! We put a set of Bilsteins on our'83 about 170K miles ago and they are still doing well.

      Also just put a set on our '95 855T and that made a huge difference, better ride (supple and no crashing about) and still good control.

    Check with http://www.importhookup.com/ for deals/coupons for parts through carparts.com. The shox.com price is $349 plus shipping. I bought a set of 4 Bilstein shocks from carparts.com through a 1st time buyer coupon that gave 33% off (up to $100 off), so the total was $309 delivered ($289+20S&H). I'm not sure about how much it will cost to install them.

    Paul,

    You probably find that www.shox.com has the best price to purchase the Bilsteins. You may find the Boge Turbo Gas a better buy, if your not the racer type. I'm guessing a shop will want 4 - 5 hours to do the install, plus any other stuff you might need. Good luck.
