Bilstein HD or Comfort Series Shocks?

[Brewcity]

Hey guys...which would you go with? I will not be doing much off roading...probably 10% of the time, if that.
Anyone ever use the Comfort Series, and how did you like them? It seems the HD's are the ones people have, and I was curious about the Comfort Series.
Thanks for the help!

I liked my HDs

I like the HD series if going with Bilsteins, hoever, one thing to keep in mind, Rancho is having a rebate event through June 30th. Check out the link below for more information.

Thanks guys....are the Rancho's a stiffer ride than the Bilstein HD's? I just dont want my teeth to chatter or spill my coffee while driving down the road! Or are these all (Bilstein and Rancho) pretty good shocks for drivability?

 

[Freedom Motorsports]

They are all nice shocks for ride/drivability. However, the RS9000XL Series are adjustable across 9 positions for the ability to adjust the ride for the conditions and your personal "feel".

Shoot me a private message for ordering information.

 

[Brewcity]

Thanks...those Rancho's do look pretty nice.
So whats the Bilstein HD part number?

 

[Freedom Motorsports]

I need your truck information before I can get the part number for them.

How many doors? When I look them up that makes a difference.

I have a 2 door. Thanks for the help!
Are they the same number for front and rear?

 

[Freedom Motorsports]

Well, I just learned a good lesson....lol Although when I use my wholesale catalog it asks for number of doors, the part # is the same.

OK...Thanks for checking...so its the same for ALL four of them? The 2 fronts are not a different type or model number than the 2 rears? Correct?

 

[Freedom Motorsports]

Correct.

 

[Brewcity]

OK...well...I just found that other places are saying that there are 2 different model numbers for the 2 doors. Fronts being F4-BE5-A405 Rears being F4-BE5-2502
Can someone confirm this? I just dont want to spend the money, wait for shipping, and then end up with the wrong shocks. Man...I really didn't think finding shocks could be so confusing!
Thanks for the help!!

 

[Freedom Motorsports]

I am double checking, I was told they were the same part numbers, but I will find out for sure by calling bilstein instead of my wholesaler.

WOW...thank you SO much for that! I truly appreciate it!

 

[Freedom Motorsports]

Ok, here are the NEW part numbers that you need and information you need.

Rear: BIL24-025027

Front: BIL24-104050

I apologize for any confusion. But these are the NEW part numbers you need. Also, these are the 4600 series Bilsteins.

Maybe I'm too late to offer a comment, but I went with the comfort type Bilstein's. For my type of use I spend hours at a time on roads or trails that are seriously rough. My trip from Tin Cup to St Elmo through the Tin Cup pass (in Colorado) took 4 hours. That's not quite 13 miles.

So the shocks I have are the big diameter heavy duty type with "comfort" valving to save me from getting beaten to death.

Thanks for the input...would you happen to have a model number on those?
I am still trying to decide which to go with...the HD or comfort.
Thanks again!
