so, i picked up some ate power slot rotors for my brick. i paid 16.50 a piece, ipd wants 60. got some bilstiens, cost me 320 for all 4, ipd wants 536 plus shipping. i wonder what i should do with all my saved money.

Where'd you get your stuff? Obviously not IPD. Would really like to know because I'm wanting to put these on my 245DL.

Solid or vented rotors?

I paid $310 delivered for a set of new Bilsteins last January, which is the best price I ever found.

Michael:

where did you buy the Bilsteins? Off the internet??? fred l.

I didn't mention it because I didn't think it would help much. I bought mine through carparts.com, which recently merged with JC Whitney, and I used a first time buyer coupon through importhookup.com. The discount was 33% off, up to $100, so the regular price of $389.20/set from carparts.com was lowered to $289.20, plus $17.82 for shipping and $1.95 for handling, for a grand total of $308.97. I'm not sure how the merge will affect their pricing, and I haven't seen the 33% off coupon being offered lately. When I used it, they were giving that discount for 3 days only, so it may have been a one time deal.

The last time I checked, the regular price from shox.com was $349/set for Bilsteins.

thanks for your reply. i did the same about 8-10 months ago and linked thru Coolsavings.com for a great deal (i can't remember how much off but it was a lot). did not know about the merger, but i doubt i'll be able to get the deals that i had thru carparts.com.

<> Hi, Hodad! You can use the money to buy me a new a/c compressor and a Power Steering rack.... Sounds like you'll still have money left over! where are you finding great deals like that?
