Shock absorbers Bilstein or Rough Country

The Aero springs lowered my Arc about 0.5"F/0.6"R on the Bilstein HD's. The Aero springs, Bilstein HD's, and uprated Moog front swaybar end links made a huge difference on my car.

Front bilstein inserts and H&R springs, upper and lower bar, New front oem upper strut bearings, new oem ball joints and tie rod ends, front torsion bar poly urethane inserts, non power steering rack with poly urethane inserts

Mine is stock height on the rear with Bilstein HDs for a Volvo 240. perfect match to stock shock length.

For shocks, I would use the Bilstein sports instead of HD's if you plan to use lowering springs. (R32 fronts and Jetta rears)

I have had this setup for a few months now, but figured I should post up on the Vortex so people can see it. Ground Control Coilover Conversion kit 400/300 spring rates mated to Bilstein Sport front (insert) and rear.

This is what I did to make my '80 Diesel Caddy a 1 Ton Rabbit on the cheap: 16V Scirocco front springs; they have the highest A-1 spring rates that came stock in the US. Bilstein HD front shocks.

my truck used to be raised... i used mk1 cabriolet front springs with bilstein hd shocks, was super stiff!

I run bilstein HDs (part of a Shine suspension setup). They're not adjustable, but I wouldn't know what to adjust.

As you all can see, the dyno showed how the TC Sport are (as also advertised) pretty close to stock, if we look at the compression. The rebound is quiet more than stock thought. But from the graphs is pretty clear that the TC is not any near the advertised 10 or 20% stiffer than stock
