Bf Mkii Bilstein Part No.

[sc s15]

I'm trying to do a bit of a suspension upgrade at the moment on my BFII. I'm getting Bilstein shocks, king springs and whiteline swaybars. I'm just trying to find out a part no. for the Bilstein shocks for BFII. Do they make they or can I just use the BA-BF shock and buy the springs to suit BA-BF?

The part numbers I have at the moment are:

Bilsteins:

Front: B46-1255BA (for BA/BF not BF MKII)

Rear: BE5-62670

King springs:

Front: KFFL-57SL (to suit BA/BF - BFII is KFFL-53SL)

Rear: KFRL-68SSL

Whiteline swaybars

Front: BFF21

Rear: BFR42Z

Is there anything else that would be needed or worthwhile doing at the same time?

Yeah I saw that. I was hoping either bilstein had started making shocks to suit BFII or someone else had experienced this and could confirm BA-BF ones definitely fit.

I've got Bilsteins in a MK11 BF. I havn't got a clue what the part numbers are. I've had them in for about 12 months, they were a big improvement over the R Spec shocks I and havn't had any dramas, the car is lowered 20mm front and 15mm in the rear and it handles great, from what it appears in this thread I'm running about 3 inchs too low, which isn't the case so the shocks must have the pistons 3 inchs further up the barrel than they are supposed to be. I havn't noticed any issues, and they aren't leaking?
