Bilstein Sport Hardware

[dishwab]

Hey R3V, I'm on the hunt for my next suspension setup and I've narrowed it down to H&R Sport, Bilstein Sport, ST sways, and E90 drop hats.

My question for you is this: what hardware do the Billy Sports come with, and which OEM part numbers do they replace (if any)?

Looking at this picture, they seem to include the top nuts and a couple of washers


Do these correspond at all to #'s 4,7 or 8 in this diagram, or should I order them independently? I ask because in the threads I've seen about the drop hats, it's important to use those washers in order to prevent binding.



Thanks

You should be able to reuse the existing #4, 7 and 8 washers you have now. They do not come with the Bilstiens. Always use new nuts, they are supplied.

was just about to make a thread like this because i picked up a set of these used..

so i will need to get 2x #5 from OP's pic and 2x #13 from this pic for the rears, anything else I can't re-use from stock?

Cool thanks for the info. My suspension right now is JOM coils and I'm not sure how much of the original hardware was retained. Might as well buy the new hardware just in case I'm missing anything.
