I have a set of Bilstein revalves. Valved for a 500lb spring. They were also shortened an inch I think. Somewhere between 3/4" and 1.5" (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
I don't remember.

I can't remember how much new Bilsteins are, but the revalve price was $75 per shock plus $65 per shock for the shortening. So $280 just in labor/custom work.


They worked great when I took them off. Just planned to mess with spring rates, and felt the adjustment would be nice to have.


One shock seeped a really small amount of oil that I noticed. This was after they were off the car and on the bench. I wiped it off, and have changed it's position (upside down, right side up, on it's sides) and no more oil. Feels great with no dead spots.

The paint is a little scratched up from the snap ring to the top. This is where the Ground Control sleeve rubbed them as I removed the sleeve spacer (old design GC kit).

I will sell these for $185 PLUS shipping. Even if that one shock needed to be rebuilt (I'M VERY CONFIDENT IT DOESN'T AND CAN'T STRESS THAT ENOUGH) you would have a set of $580 shocks for $260!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I AM looking for a few parts and PREFER trades.

I want a CAI for an LT1 car
Momo steering wheel
Poly engine mounts

Or partial trade on a torque arm.
