Bilstein installation

[moderatespender]

I have steeda adjustable bump stops on my base stock shocks will they work? I see people using BMW ones. Anything else I need. Not upgrading the rear shock mounts. Taking to shop to install.


Thanks

The rears won't work. You don't need them for the front.

So I need the BMW bump stops

What is the part # for the BMW ones? Anyone else think the steeda adjustables will not work on the rear shocks?

The steeda "don't work" because the inner bore is too small I believe. Take an Xacto knife and slit the ID and you can shove them on.

All the info you need on BMW stops with Bilsteins is in my thread here:

Just curious, what torque specs did you guys used for the front strut center nut on your Bilsteins?

Thank you! The reason I asked was that in the Bilstein's installation manual, it calls for 54 ft lb for the M14 thread size which is a bit lower than the 76 ft lb that Ford call for.

I would follow Bilstein spec that's 30% lower than the Ford spec which is super weird.
