Bilstein 5100 steering stabilizer part #

I didn't like the looks of my old worn out steering stabilizer, It didn't match my new Bilstein 5100 shocks.

So after a little checking, I found out that the 5125 series shock with the Part # F4-BE5-A463-H6, had the same travel length of 9 1/4", extended length of 24 3/8", and collapsed length of 15 1/8" that the stock shock had.

I gave Clay a call with the part number and he sent me one for $84.00.

I hope this may help somebody else that wants to have their stabilizer match their 5100 Bilsteins. But couldn't find a part number.

Looks good Mark. I probably should replace mine as well, its the original one.
I dont recognize that tread pattern on your tires, What kind are they?
I'm gonna need new ones soon.

Yes, because my old stabilizer was totally shot. I could compress and extend it with out any effort.

Sorry for digging up an old thread but I have a question. The part number referenced is a shock. Can we use a shock as a steering stabilizer? Doesn't it want to extend and push the steering all the way over? Is it tough to turn in the direction that you are compressing the shock?
