No Go on the photos -- once again - trying to load photos on this form is difficult - probably to prevent "infected" stuff ? Drag and drop would be a Godsend !?

Bay Area -- under my "user name" - send me a private message thru the forum -- I will reply with my email address (again) thru the forum via PM - and you could then (if you think its safe - and I'm sure it is) - send me "your" email - so I can send 2 web size photos of shocks - "if" you want to check them out ? If you send me a message thru "profile" messaging - I'm not clear on how that all works -- I've never used it - i've only been successful sending photo to this forum once ! If you don't need photos - fine - tell me so -- Thanks !

Billsteins had over 50K on them. Bought a set of Fox shocks and installed them. They are built heavier than any shock I have used. Very impressed by their performance. If you want install them yourself you will need to compress them. I did not have anything close to what the shops use so I improvised with a ratcheted 1" strap. Once I got the shock compressed it bolted on w/little problem. BUT! Make sure you have an angle grinder to get the old bolts out. They seem to anneal themselves to the inside of the metal spacers.

There are lots of threads on improving handling....sway bar bushings, checking ball joints, shocks and go on from there....
Bilsteins are very nice and guaranteed for life...I've been thru a couple....
It is not just the shocks....google search is your friend..
