3 Different listings for Bilstein Fronts ?

[Hary Gahtoe]

Ok I've owned several sets of Bilstein but this isn't self explanitory. There site says 3 different shocks for a 98 front All pretty much saying the same deal. What are the differences?

You are right it isnt self explanatory. There might be slight valving differences causing the multiple listings. Kind of like the OME Comfort, Medium or Heavy. Are you looking for a stock type replacement, something that you might be able to lift later on or? They have an 800 number you can call for more clarification.

I just spoke to Bilstein and their website is corrupt. They looked up each part number and gave me the breakdown.

F4-BE5-F332-H1 is 4wd front
F4-BE5-2482-H2= 2wd Front
F4-BE5-2482-HO= 2wd Front different years
F4-BE5-2451-HO= Rear Shock 96-99

Tech at Bilstein says best to download current applications guide since hte online search function is corrupt and innacurrate.

Thank you Pikeman! I like the quality of Bilstein and I'm just looking for a good OEM replacement with a better level of control and longevity. I'll look at getting my tools and work area ready for shocks and ball joints.
