Does anyone know which bilstein shocks are the shortened ones? Or even recommend the best of the bilsteins in the range.

theres 3 options:

b10 kit: shortened uprated dampers and basic springs
b12 kit: shortened uprated dampers (same as sprintline ones) and H&R springs
Sprintline Dampers: the best fixed rate damper available. twin tube shocks, oversized piston rods and never ever fail.

Give me a ring about bilstein stuff mate, we are offering 15% off some stuff at the moment, especially seperate dampers.

the B12 kit sounds good. Do you do the shortened dampers separately? Can you price any of these things up for me or do I need to ring?

My mate bought a set of these from Dave a couple of weeks ago. They are the business. A lot better than any other shocks i've driven a car with.

Yep, thats the one.

He's still stressed. They finished it last Sunday, shocks are on, engines in. It's in Leek at the moment, it needs the legs and boot floor welding. It'll be going to PV, thats all he's bothered about.
