Bilstein

[flnl]

Where can I get the Bilstein's shocks specifications? I've found a very good deal on a l set and I wanna know if they'd fit on my 94.

The #s are:

F4-BE5-2791-HO (front)

F4-BE5-2792-HO (rear)

They are new, but were bought for a Ford Ranger.

I took a quick look but couldn't find anything right off the bat... I'm sure if you email Bilstein they'll get back to you with the dimensions and such.

Do you belive there's no e-mail for contacting Bilstein at their USA site???

[statikuz]

You could call them up... or is it mega long distance?

[flnl]

International Brazil to USA

But maybe the deal worth the call, or I could send www.bilstein.de an e-mail. Hope they don't answer in German.

I doubt they will fit, but you never know. They are for a 98 - 04 Ranger

. You can try to email info@allshocks.com and see if they will help you. Since you aren't looking to purchase new shocks, they probably will not, but it's worth a shot. Sorry I couldn't find anything else.

That's how they're like:

The rears look like they'll fit, but the fronts: maybe not... those mounts are kinda weird lookin...

I'm basically interested in the ones for the rear. No problems if the fronts don't fit, the guy is selling the set for what should be US$ 60.

You could measure them and compare to these numbers:

I only got the information contacting Bilstein in Germany, thanks to Mr. Guenter Hein (jahoolt!) from Bilstein Motorsports Dept. :bow:

According to him:

Front

F4-BE5-2791-H0

ext. - 14.016"

comp. - 9.803"

travel - 4.213"

Rear

F4-BE5-2792-H0

ext. - 22.677"

comp. - 14.213"

travel - 8.464"

 

As in topic http://www.nissanpathfinders.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=3036:

Front

RS5252

ext. - 14.250"

comp. - 9.635"

travel - 4.615"

RS5214 (alternate)

ext. - 14.990"

comp. - 9.700"

travel - 5.290"

Rear

RS5118

ext. - 22.250"

comp. - 14.000"

travel - 8.250"

RS5116 (alternate)

ext. - 24.000"

comp. - 14.875"

travel - 9.125"

 

The front shocks are really shorter than RS5252. I don't think they will fit, mainly with a front lift.

Rear shocks are have a bit longer travel than RS5118, a bit more length extended and compressed. But I don't know if that 0.427" of extra extended length and 0.214" of extra travel will work fine with 2"-3" of rear lift.
