Suspension Upgrade Summary

[JonRobbinSS]

Just a quick note on the warranty status on the Bilstein shocks..

Forget it - no warranty available. One of my rears broke last week and many emails and conversations with Australia and Germany and three drives to BilsteinUS. No luck.

I did find a new shock I plan on attempting to install to replace both rear shocks. It is the offering for the Camaro rear. 24-222976. Lifetime warranty when installed on a Camaro but nothing for our application. But they are only a little over $100 each so quite a bit more affordable. The compression is a little stiffer and rebound a little softer. How they work with my King HD springs will be discovered this weekend when I do the install.

Quick update after about a month of daily driving on the new rear dampers.. Love them, they feel a lot better. I wouldn't use the Commodore rear damper if they gave me a new one.

Now - if they are faster on the autocross track.... Not sure yet. I have done one event but it wasn't the best day for me, I will hold out for another event before passing judgement.

H&R offers coilovers P/N 50751. price varies between 1000 - 1200 dollars depending on vendor. Just installed a set on my GXP and I love them!!!

Just want to point out that the lists are not up-to-date as more/less parts are now available.

i.e. more strut bushings, PPV dampers, King & Eibach springs, etc., but Fe3s pretty much NA.

Forgot about this thread. Bumping it up for info purposes.

Replacing shocks and struts on a 2009 Pontiac G8 GT. Does anyone know the torque settings for the mounting bolts? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
