* Bilstein HDs Monotube High Pressure struts may or may not fit later 240 struts mounts 1988, 89, certainly 1990 and later whether ABS fitted or not. Some people mention stripping or shaving off the labels on the Bilstein HDs Monotube High Pressure by grinding the exterior labels, paint, and perhaps some of the metal. The newer strut tubes are shorter and, more to the point, tapered.


Could this possibly be the reason not to cough up the extra buck and a half?
