Soooo,

I go to price out some nice new bilsteins for the truck and the price for four 5100's, $755.70CAD including tax but not installed! Needless to say I muttered something under my breath, tried to swallow and politely excused myself from said store.

So my question is, How much are they in the area north of Seattle. I'm in Vancouver and haven't been able to find them any cheaper. I may invent my own if this is what I'm going to have to pay. I'm willing to drive on down and pick them up but from where. Any good parts stores that carry them for less than my arm and leg?

 

thats expensive!!!

 

Extremeoff-road.com has really good prices. I am about to order OME shocks and springs and they have been the lowest price I've found. I found someone to put them on for 125$.

 

check ebay and also www.shox.com they usually offer the best price

 

Bils shouldn't run you much over $270 USD online.
I never priced em in Canada but............OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can someone say price gouging.

 

Bil 5100s at Truck Performance

 

I bought my Bils at shox.com and they had the best price at the time.

That price does seem a bit excessive!

 

dang for 5100s? at all pro you can get them for $75 each. there has to be a way you can get them a non-cad price.

all pro

 

I priced em out on Performanceproducts.com (not my first choice in a dealer but...) they ran 270.32 + shipping. So...right around 300 bucks shipped to my door, I am going to try and install them myself. We'll see how long that idea lasts...

well if those are the same as the trd ones...(i have no idea) i got them from jimmy p's toyota on the north shore...40 bucks a pop =] not bad =]

try no limit offroad in coquitlam they awsome guys thier...thats wher ei woul dbuy my shock sin future =]

 

no they are not the same as the trd ones.... as far as i know. i know the 5100s are for "lifted applications" though... as specified by bilstein.

 

Yeah. It's way cheaper to buy from the States right now because Canadian retailers haven't lowered their prices to account for the improving exchange rate.

 

someone here should buy it for babypig and get paid thru paypal or wat not and then ship it to him.

$300 for shocks... and how much to ship?

would it be cheaper?

 

To get the best exchange.... shouldn't he buy them himself and have them sent to someone along the border? That's what I'm doing with a friend. He's having a couple FRS radios sent to my house then coming down to pick them up when we go snowboarding.

 

yeah that ^^ would be easier for the person who is in the states im sure one of us many people here in washington wouldn't mind helpin you out man. if you want, i'd do it.

 

yea htats what i did for my supercharger =] went down to visit ex' (was girl friend at time hehe just in time =] ) then picke dit up and brough it over...

 

I'm a little closer to you, about 30-45 minutes from the border.

 

Well NSOR has the procomp es3000's on sale. The buy three get one free thing. So that would be 225 all in. and bils for about three hundred us makes it all most 400 hundred bucks Canadian.
This will take some thought.

 

That's high for the ES3000's too!!! I see them for between $33 and $39 each down here. 4WheelParts has all four for $154. So that would be something like $200 CDN. And that was the first place I looked. If you look online you can find them even cheaper.

http://www.rubiconexpress.com/dynami...p?folderid=807 Has a set of four for only $124, $163 CDN without the boots. Actually, as I think about it, every place I've been to sells the shocks without the boots. I think NWOR sells them for $35.

But I guess at this little difference, you may want to buy them locally to avoid the hassle of shipping/returns/etc.
