Anyone running Bilstein shocks on the rear?
I couldn't find a part number for rear Bilstein shocks (4wd). Anyone using Bilsteins from another application on the rear? If so, how do you like them and what part number are they?

Re: Anyone running Bilstein shocks on the rear?
Are you running stock height or a lift? Looking for monotube shocks or nitros?

Re: Anyone running Bilstein shocks on the rear?
If all else fails, measure ride height and have an idea of the amount of suspension droop and compression as well as the diameter and thickness of the shock mounts. Give Bilstein a call and see what they have. Maybe you'll luck out and they can help you with just the year, make, model, and amount of lift. I guarantee they've got something that will fit.

Re: Anyone running Bilstein shocks on the rear?
Did you ever figure this out? I looked on the Bilstein website and the front shocks for a 73 Blazer are the same as a 72 Blazer.
They list a 24-009331 for the rear on a 73 Blazer, if the front on a 72 & 73 is the same so is the rear maybe????

Nevermind.... so much for that theory, I checked kyb and monroe and their listings for the rear on 72 and 73`s dont match.
