Call BILSTEIN direct. I got my part #s from their tech dept. You could try FOX PERFORMANCE, they carry them for THE EDGE lift kits and may sell just the shocks. You should only pay about $75+for them.

I think you're looking for BE5-6249-H5 for the front and BE5-6250-H5 for the rear.....these are the silver ones. I remember Overkill saying that they were on backorder before........not sure if they have come in yet or not. $75 each.


There are also the 5150s, I don't know the part numbers, not sure on the price either but thought I'd show them to you. For some reason I want to say they were close to $100....but don't quote me on that.



Hope this helps.

I got the hood for $699 (I think the price has dropped since I got it in 8/01), then they charged $20 to box it, and $58 for shipping (It comes straight from Keystone on a Truck so it might be more to you......and when I got it they would only deliver it to a business).
Then to fix a few small imperfections in the hood, prep it, paint it both sides, clearcoat and buff it I paid $300. It was my buddy's shop and he lets me use his lift and shop space to work on my truck so I didn't shop around.

Oh, and yes it is fiberglass.



Thanks .
