I recall reading something about an Impala specific Bilstein shock other then the 1104/0929 or 1516/1517 combinations. I can't remember where I saw it, but it mentioned that Bilstein was R&D'ing a set of shocks with custom valving specific to the Impala.

Anyone no anything on this?

I don't think anything ever came of it. I haven't come across it, if it is out there. I run the 0929/1104, and I like them.

Bilstein was working with Hotchkis on this, and no product was ever released from the collaboration.

I read a post on the NAISSO tech board that mentioned something about the top washer on the 1516 shock was too big (?) resulting in noise from the front end. Has anyone else had this problem?

Will I run into the same problem with the 1104 shock?

TIA,
