Replacement for Bilstein shock?

[Pipedream72]

Hi folks, back in 2017 I had van lowered with this setup from Customvanz -

40MM EIBACH RACELINE PRO KIT SPRINGS
WITH RACELINE BILSTEIN PRO CIRCUIT SHOCKS & DAMPERS
PRO CIRCUIT KIT

One of the rear shocks has failed and I'm thinking prob best to replace both while I'm at it, but local garage struggling to source a replacement as standard autoparts suppliers can't be sure if what they stock will replace existing.

Can anyone tell me what a like for like replacement for the shocks is as I can't obviously find something with a similar name to the 'PRO CIRCUIT' shocks above.....thinking likely that Bilstein's current offering has a new name by now.

And if you could point me at a good place to buy them, that'd be even better!!!

Thanks,

Steve

I had a leaky front bilstein damper when I bought the van and couldn't afford to replace both, I had severe overwhelm with the options and potential incorrect kits etc, I went on the bilstein website and got very confused (ADHD) so I contacted them about it, they were really good. they asked for the code on the shock and advised where it (the code obviously - I knew where the shock was) would be and they told me exactly what I needed and it all went pretty well. I'd say if you want like for like, contact Bilstein. Delivery in 48hrs and I had it delivered direct to my indy vw mechanic as I was working nights. Worth a try, even just for information, no obligation to buy.

Ideally Should replace them as pairs at least. Good luck with your hunt. Have you tried the relevant outlets on here who deal with Bilstein? See what they say.
