Bilstein Shock Question
Well I finially decided to go with the Bilstein Shocks on my truck only to realize that everywhere I checked there is a national backorder I have tried eshocks.com, shox.com, summit racing, allshocks, and maybe a few that I have forgotten. Does anyone know who my have these in stock? There was someone (Strano) that advertises on this site, but I couldn't find a link to their website.

Any help would be greatly apprecited!

Thank you,

Camping World is advertising them in their latest flyer. $71.10 to $105.78 I don't know what they usually run, but that sounds kinda high.

Sam Strano is who you are looking for. Nice guy & last I heard he has the shocks in stock. Do a search for Strano parts.

Part numbers should be BE5-6681-H5 and BE5-6647-H5. The funny thing is when I looked on 3 different websites they did not list shocks for the RAM 3500 for 2003, so you may want to verify these part numbers.

I work at Les Schwab Tires, we get them in all the time.

As a matter of fact, I installed a set on my grandfathers 04 Powerstroke today. He couldn't be any more pleased.

I needed a couple specific size 5125's for my offroad rig that were also on a long backorder. Bilstein said these guys are one of their larger distributors and they had them as of last week..............

Unless someone knows differently the part numbers should be the same for the 2500/3500 series trucks.
