Help finding Bilstein parts online in America
I posted recently where I was having a problem with a rear Bilstein HD shock where the droplink had separated from the sway bar. The consensus on replies to my post was that Bilstein should have supplied a second lock ring with the kit to fit under the droplink mount on the shock.
I have had little success here in Australia sourcing 2 additional lock rings as well as a missing drop link. One shop I contacted said because my shocks were sourced OS (PelicanParts) he would be willing to machine them to put a new thread on them to accept the Australian Bilstein parts. Obviously I am not going down that road.
Can someone please let me know where I can source these parts from America?
TIA

I used the 50mm lock ring from FVD. Best of all, it's $6.

Why not go back to Bilstein? They have great support for thier products, and thier prices are very resonable. Even if they had to shiup from germany or US, I would not think it would be too expensive, the parts you are talking about are very light.
