Hi All I am looking for the measurements of the standard bilstein suspension. before going to the extent of buying an old set that I can send away, I thought I would check on here. I believe the rear open length is 16.5" but that is the only info I have been able to find from the forum. I am looking for Top Eye, Bush Width and Hole Diameter and the Bottom Eye, Bush Width and Hole Diameter as well as the spring lengths etc.. I have read due to fouling 2.25" shocks cannot be fitted to the VX? Any help would be greatly apreciated. Thanks James

Difficult with the weather being fairly rubbish and without access to a garage. I thought I would ask on here as I thought people would have a spare set of shocks they could measure or may know the information from doing their own research on suspension.
