Rebuilt Bilsteins and Recover Petri

[Tim M]

I'm wondering if anyone has sent a set of shocks and struts to Bilstein to have reconditioned and if so did you go sport or something different?
And I'm also looking to send my Petri into Craft Customs to rewrap my wheel @ 449.00+shipping.
Thanks in advance,Tim.

A friend of mine has had bilstein rebuild shocks, but it was a while ago. He was very happy with their service. He had a Hardy and Beck specification for the shocks.

As I understand it, you need to call them and discuss what you want and then they set up an order.

Rebuild price is about same as new so a different spec might be worth it.

Bilstein does not do any work on their shocks anymore. They are sending everything to Performance Shocks at the Sonoma (Sears Point) raceway.
I had my rear shocks modified by them and so far I am really pleased with their work.

Starts at $200 per shock or strut, even they recommend buying new.

Thank you guy's for the input! Anyone use Craft Custom? Or is there one someone used that had a good job done?
