Hi Guy's,

I think it is that time! Looking for Bilsteins 4600's all round, uber expensive in the UK! Was looking at Summit as there shipping is reasonable.

Only thing is the fronts are out of stock until Oct 2014:eek:

Anyone recommend another supplier with reasonable shipping to the UK?

I do appreciate you would possibly know of international shipping but worth asking!:thumbsup:

The Bilsteins greatly improved tire wear on the inside and outside of my WJ tires. :thumbsup:

Who wouldn't remember this information from a pair of bolts they installed in 2011?!?!?

Of course pal...it's a 10.9 Hex Head Cap Screw. 12mm-1.75x70. You may want to wait until you get the shocks to measure for the best shoulder length. The tighter the bolt fits in the bushing sleeve, the better off you'll be. :thumbsup:

Upper sway bar end links too!!! They use the same crappy bolt. If you still get a clunk after you change shock bolts your problem is there so get 6 "TONY" bolts. The shoulder length on that size bolt is pretty much standard. Mopar just uses a weird bolt. Also never seize them up good or you'll regret it next time you want to remove them.

YES! I "Anti-Seize" everything living up here....good advice.

I've replaced all bolts at one point or another on the rear shocks, front and rear addco sway bar, front and rear end links. While you're in there, you might as well. Bolts are cheap enough.
