Bilstiens Shock Bushings

I recall someone (I think it was driftdevil) posting up the lower bushings for R package Bilstiens. But my search skillz seem to be a bit weak today...... :(

Does anyone know of a source for the lower shock bushings?

TIA

Still Searching anyone got any first hand experience with this bushing? I've found a few but not sure what size I need.

TIA

Went up in the attic and measured the bushings on an old OEM black NA shock.

1.77" long x .440" ID x 1.375" OD

Figure the length and the ID would be the same for the Bilstiens sound logical?


Think I found them at Summit - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/BSN-E4GV1Z044A02/

Call Bilstein in CA (858-386-5900) and ask for Clarence in "small parts". He's a busy guy and hard to get on the phone, but should be able to get you what you need based on shock part number. Post up the part # of the bushings if you get them since I need some too! :D

I order the ones off of Summit first thing this AM I'll let ya know if they work out! If they don't work I'll call Clarence!

The ones from Summit are an exact match of the originals. ::Banana::

A press would be handy but I was able to get the bushings on and of with the help of my bench Vice, C-Clamp, and some sockets.

Took it for a spirited run and the thunk I was hearing is gone!

Sweet! What part number did you order?
