Best/cheapest place to buy Bilstein shocks

I'm about to purchase the bilstein leveling kit for my 2005 F250(comes with two 5100 shocks) and new 5100 rear shocks. Right now it's gonna cost around $570 with shipping from truckspring.com
Anyone know where i could possibly find a better deal? 570 is gonna break my bank right now lol

X2, 4 wheel parts has pretty good prices. That's where I got mine. But then again I have a store in SA so I don't have to pay any shipping.

IMO, if you are going to make a recommendation, then take the time to provide the "specific" links and pricing.

Lakewood; Oh wow! The rear shocks would be another 160 or so right? I did 4 bils, steering stabalizer, track bar bracket, front 2.5 bushings, and taller rear blocks with bump stops for around 500 I think.
Furian, I'm not sure exactly what you mean or who it was geared towards, but I feel referring people to a site seems to be a big help without doing all of the research for them. The research for the parts is on them. Either way, that's all we're trying to do is help.............. Hope y'all had a good new year.

I'm sorry but I disagree... If I say that "ABC Company" is a good place for pricing but when I research the price and it is higher than a competitive company, that was a waste of my time and other user's time. Also, by not providing the specific links and pricing, you are requiring ALL FTE users who may be interested to take the time to enter specific vehicle data in the company's website to find the desired parts. Again, a waste of user's time.

I have spent hours researching parts for FTE users.... why? Because I want my recommendations to be taken seriously with facts, not just blind recommendations. However, I realize that not everyone is willing to put forth this effort, but I respect the one's that do.
