What shocks do you have on your CRD

[journeyjim]

I've blown the second set of factory shocks, going after market. Was thinking about Bilstein's?, any body got other suggestions. thanks
Also does anybody know the part number for the front springs on a crd?.

I'm running Bilsteins.......Here are the part numbers. I'm not sure which is front and which is rear.....They were around $250 shipped from Shox.com.HJ

BE5-D916-H0
BE5-D917-H0

OME's

Is that the factory spring part number?

Bilsteins may end up being the primary aftermarket option. Heard from a friend in Charlotte a few weeks back that Rancho is going to drop the RSX line of shocks.

Nope, that's the ARB / Old Man Emu (=OME) ref...

Why do you want the OEM number? Stock coils are not worth it.

OME are going to lift it too much, since I tow mine behind a motor home, the tow bar has to be level or lower than the hitch point on the tow vehicle, if I do a lift then will have to change the hitch set up on the motor home.
Was going to do a new set of factory springs in front and a better set of shocks and maybe boilers shim kit, I believe I can get away with about an inch of lift and not throw off my towing set up.

Koni 5 way adjustables. It seems the new ones are only 3 way now.

Rancho 5764/5284. Worked well on both CRD's we have owned.
