Mike,

Thanks. That's what I was looking for. It had been reported that a Bilstein rebuild was in the $180-200 range. My 92 has coilovers and I suspect that the Bilsteins with 112K miles are shot. It bounces up and down excessively. I have 2 other sets of Bilsteins and am now in process of getting them grooved to accept the coilovers. Hoping that does the trick. This is after replacing the spings themselves. The ones that came on the car allowed very little travel before coil bind making for a pretty stiff ride. However, the springs rates were fairly normal @ 400/300lb.
