Hey guys and gals, About a month ago, I purchased some BavAuto Springs from a member... Thanks Dave Last week I took advantage of Bav Auto's great sale on Bilstein Sport Shocks and struts, I also got some new RSM's from the local parts store (after busting one of mine). In the long process of installing my new suspension components, I found out that both front and rear springs on my drivers side were broken (this explains why my car has been leaning towars that side ever since i got it) The car feels and drives great after these mods... i recommend to everyone ! Now for some pics :  Broken front and rusted spring and old worn out strut  Front setup  Rear setup... I had to re-use the rubber shock protector.... I thought new ones came with the shocks  In the garage after the install  Nice pic with the world's biggest lobster in my town  __________________

You said you got the shocks and struts on sale, how much did they run you? I've been looking at lowering my car for a while, but most shocks I find are rather pricey. __________________ -Kenny

You can get the Bilstein combo things on eBay cheaper than separate components. | | | | | 05-20-2007, 07:07 PM | #8 | | Member Join Date: Nov 2005 Location: Shediac, N.B. Canada Posts: 96 |
Bilstein Sports are currently on sale at Bavauto.com and I think it's free shipping for you guys in the US... __________________

That's odd. In the US, we have shock tubes (just a plastic shroud) in the rear instead of a rubber boot. __________________
