bilstein shocks

I was looking around at buying new shocks and i was intrested in the Bilstein's cause i have heard nothing but goods reviews on them. I seen the other day on the website that they were 121.00 for front and rear shocks but i needed to know if that was the price for a set of the shocks or was that for an individual shock. Are there any other quality shocks cause $400 out of my budget. Feedback would be appriciated.

I got my bilsteins for a 2005 for about $450 installed. But that is an 05. If I were you I would either get the bilsteins or the rancho rsx. Both great shocks. I had the rsx's on the old body style and they were great but then when i got the 2005 f150 the rancho rs9000s busted twice so I switched to bilsteins and am NEVER going back to rancho. Good Luck.

That price of $121 is probably the list price of Bilsteins EACH. Eshocks has them for $64.95 each for the front of your vehicle, and $69.95 each for the rear of your vehicle. I had them on my 01 Scab 4x4 and now have them on my 04. They in my opinion are worth it.

www.eshocks.com

Search the internet, you may find them cheaper than this.

One word of warning, if you are doing the install yourself, make sure you have ratcheting box end wrenches for the rear top post mount. It will save your knuckles and a lot of swearing.
