Holy smokes! That's a little over 1/2 of what I paid for a new set four years ago!

Thanks Mike and Phil for the info. I have to go dig up my receipt for my shocks and drop an e-mail to Ms. Ciacci.

Thanks guys!

That's $350 for standard shocks and +$450 for FX3 upgrade for a total of $800 to purchase the FX3 shocks. Not that fantastic of a deal.

I got a price from my local part supplier last week of $375 per shock. That $450 was looking pretty good but maybe not anymore. Might look into rebuilding as next winters project.

Should be about 200 per shock
try e shocks

Just got a rear pr from e shocks and shipping was free, very good service!

And I found them here on our forum thanks guys, not ready to install yet but
when I do I'll have a few questions...jimmy

I will have to see what they will charge for shipping to Canada. The free shipping is US only.

Bilstein left a message on my phone today. $100 ea to rebuild plus any parts beyond the standard seals and oil. Shipping is on me...
