Hey evryone,

I'm ready to order some Bilstein shocks but want to know if anyone out there has a 2 inch lift on there GQ patrol with Bilstein shocks? I'm going to order them from the states as the prices here are ridiculous, not going to pay $200 per shock!!

I drive a 94 GQ, LWB coils all the way around, 4.2EFI and will be on the road 90% of the time and don't do anything to hard core off-road.

The part numbers I have are;
* B46-1266 & B46-1267 (old part number)
* 24-012669 & 24-012676

I also emailed Bilstein Australia and received the following response " Those part numbers are often OK, however with certain raised coils a longer shock can be beneficial particularly on the rear. We often use BE5 H422 on the front and B46 1267LT on the rear. Out of interest where did you purchase your shocks from? "

Any info, opinions, comments etc.. please
Thanks in advance!! :smiley_thumbs_up:

Can't comment on Bilstein but I would buy Old Man Emu nitrocharger shocks any day of the week.
A better buy than Bilstein IMO.
