(2) Bilstein 7100

Post by TOOLMAN »

Two Bilstein 7100's. I only have about 300 miles on them. Zero wheeling trips. A little too short for my setup. Here's the details:

Bought from Wild Horses: https://www.wildhorses4x4.com/product/Bilstein-7100-Short-Body-Reservoir-360-80-Extended-27-Compressed-16/Bronco_Shock_Absorbers

Compressed: 16"
Extended: 27.75"
Valve: 360/80

These can be re-build and I think re-valved.

$350 obo

I can't remember what kind of shock towers you are running. More importantly, what's your distance between shock mounting points?

IΓÇÖve got the F250 towers and the mounting point distance is about 23ΓÇ¥

These might work well for my rears. Let me measure.

Maybe a little short. 7" of compresion, 5" of droop. I think I'm at 23.5-24". 23" seems a little long thinking of your suspension. Aren't you running the Lars Bars with the lower shock connection on top of the arm?

IΓÇÖve got 5100 Bilsteins on now and when I bought them- I had to go with rear valved units from WH and they are a little soft but work.
