I have hr and bilstein. Makes a big difference but is stiffer. If I can do it again I would go with hr and koni adjustable, I hear it's not as stiff.

Pros: makes a big difference
Cons: is stiffer

The part number of this absorber is 68533962AB. It has BILSTEIN sticker on it. So I tried to find wiring replacement by BILSTEIN themselves but failed.

Pros: BILSTEIN sticker
Cons: failed to find wiring
Vehicle: Dodge

Service writer gave me a ticket for Bilstein front and rear shocks on a 17 tundra, had to rebuild the front struts with the new set. I assumed it was the oem replacement... There's a small snap ring on the shaft of the shock that adjusts the spring seat (also the spring seat in this picture is installed upside down, something I too figured out the hard way).

Cons: spring seat upside down
