Bilstein Availability

I ordered my bilsteins last week friday and they showed up less than a week later.
 
Does anybody know about how much a shop charges to install new struts in the truck including transferring over the springs and various needed parts from the oem strut? I’m thinking about having Dobb’s do mine.... and possibly get my tires and mount them as well. Obviously, I’ll be calling. Was just kind of wondering what everyone was paying that didn’t do them themselves.

Local garage here quoted me $350, which includes the install and full wheel alignment.

I’ve been refreshing many sites and I saw them pop up as available on CarID yesterday and ended up placing my order there. Just waiting for a tracking number.
 
did the front today will finish rear tomorrow. didn't even have to remove brake calipers. everything went smooth except had to remove wheel weights due to hitting calipers. have an alignment appointment Thursday so il have them re balance wheels to accommodate the calipers. 20210410_144628.jpg20210410_113401.jpg
 
I called Realtruck.com yesterday, and they said the had 8 pairs in the FL warehouse. Ordered the pair and they are supposed to be here 4/16.
 
I called Realtruck, they are out of stock (at least as of 4/12 when I called) with no known date of restock.
 
Well bad news. Received shocks and one of them was missing the installation kit. Waiting on Bilsteinlifts to respond on what they can do.

Just heard back. They have sent a request to have Bilstein send me an installation kit. Let's see how long that may be. :rolleyes:

Hopefully quicker than I get my shocks. I had been watching their website like a hawk for days and last Wednesday morning they came back in stock I ordered a set of fronts/rears. Order went through, even still had a few sets left a couple hours after I purchased mine. Still haven’t shipped and finally heard back from them and they said oh sorry we’re out of stock, be 3-4 weeks. 😡

That is bogus! Their website seemed to do a good job updating quantities. I bet it wont be 3-4 weeks. You just need to get lucky when they get stocked again.

Are they going to hold a set for you at least? Or is your order just canceled??

I should get them as soon as they get some. My order is still valid and “processing”.
