Will Bilstein sell the B14 coil over dampers WITHOUT their supplied springs, for a reduced cost, for those who want to use a different spring set??

I understand (and know many on here will bring this up) the whole 'matched' spring rate to damper valving thing, but the Swifts I would want to use on them are not a radically different rate. ;)

IIRC the rear dampers in the B14 kit are B6 of B8 or something readily available? (Yellow paint)

Get the B8 with swift spring. Been done and people are happy. No adjustment like the B14 but still good. Alternatively contact Bielstein they may have a repair kit when the strut is dead which may be a whole strut. Use to be like that for older trucks I had. Have not looked into it for this.

I've heard bilstein may also do custom sales if you need adjustability...
