Bilstein B4 dampers are the OE replacement line, valved to restore the ride quality, ride height and handling the car left the factory with rather than to change them. This is the front right twintube strut assembly, measuring 15.75 inches collapsed and 23.03 inches extended, and it is sold individually, so a matched pair means ordering the left side as well. Bilstein builds B4 units to meet or exceed the original equipment specification, which makes them the straightforward choice when a worn strut needs replacing and the car is staying on its stock springs.
