I just got my new HD bilstein shocks and was looking at the springs and shocks. How the heck am I supposed to get the shocks out? THere doesn't seem to be much room to get them out?

ANY TIPS?

Thanks All!

 

you have to unbolt the 3 bolts on top of the spring tower, then remove the bracket from the shock, then open the hood and wiggle the shock up and out through the top. be careful on the drivers side of those 12v+ wires down on the fender, sparks will fly

 

how much did you pay? I'm either going with a set of bilsteins or ranchos.

 

they are yellow and blue......HD's all four for 219....(free shipping!) He's also got monroes and others.....

I'll report back on them when I test them out.

 

oh yeah....quick shipping too.

Ordered 13th, arrived today!

 

Guess I didn't have to drop that axle and yank the springs, eh?

It's OK, I was putting in levelling springs anyway.

Bilsteins

 

Don't want to rain on your parade, but I have only heard horrible stuff about the "blue and yellow" Bilsteins. Most folks I know that have ordered the 5100's have been very happy with those, including me.
