Bilstein OEM Replacement Shocks

[strikk]

A little over $250 bucks and 2 days later they are sitting on my door step.

The next battle for this is to see what can be done about the rear shock perches that come off the chassis. Mine are rusting and I wouldn't be surprised if the driver side one simply flexed with the leaf spring instead of forcing the shock to dampen my ride.

LMC has them for a pretty penny, $60 each. part numbers 34-1314 and 34-1315, they can be found on page 128 of our model year's catalog.

I stopped by two local picknpulls but the perches there were just as bad. Does anyone know where I could get them a little bit cheaper? I called up CAP and NAPA but they don't stock the parts

Doorman has them as DORMAN Part # 924403 and 924404 on rockauto and amazon but still 60 a piece.

Anyone parting out a truck?

front shocks are different on a 2wd & 4wd. and the rears will work but actually different lengths. (4wd are slightly longer)
