    5150's are all eye/eye mount, and we need top mount threaded for fronts.

    Also, the rod comes out of the wrong end of the shock for out firment, so you couldn't just cut it off and thread a longer one. Bilstein appears to have tried to put the heavy part of the shock on the frame to reduce unsprung weight.

    Turning the shock over would cause the fluid to aerate and bubble.

    B46-1738 front
    B46-1739 rear
    These are the #'s for the Bilsteins that fit
