Hi guys, been awhile! I've got 64k on my MS3 and its past time to replace the struts! Has anyone actually come out with a specific to the Speed3 strut yet or just HP regular 3 ones? I'm gonna do all 4, the rears I'll do myself but the fronts I'll have done by my shop. Seems from what I'm reading, if I'm not lowering, which I'm not that the list goes from best to worst:
Bilstein HD, I see allot call them B6's cost about 600 bucks.
Koni Yellows are about 450 bucks.
Koni FSD at about 450 also.
im looking for a direct replacement and the price difference seems negligible, especially as I like the idea of no adjustments on the Bilsteins and FSDs. I want better performance and don't mind a stiffer ride as long as they fit and should be easy install, rears for me and fronts for shop.
My question is for the Bilsteins you don't need to reuse or have bumps stops in just the front or rear?
The Konis reuse the bumps stops correct? Awhile back I remember someone had made Urathane Bump stops? Anyone know if there still Available? I'm sure mine could use replacing?
Whats you alls thoughts, I'm leaning toward the Bilstein HD(B6's?) just wondering what install entails and if anyone has done a how to as I could have shop install the springs and do fronts myself but read about ball bearings flying around and such and want this to be hassle free as this is my Baby, trying to see how long I can keep it as I hate payments and have a Tundra also to tow my boat!
thanks in advance for any and I mean any advice, thanks guys, glad your all still around as I been sick for awhile and done all the maintenence on motor and tranny and such but have let the suspension go!
