Can you tell me the model number of the Bilstein damper, I am just in the process of getting some reconditioned and re-valved to suit 300lb springs. I'm not convinced all Bilstein sports are the same settings / model number. It costs £65 per side to re-valve etc. here in the U.K.
Could this be an option for you ?
Looking at the photo's I reckon something has gone 'solid' at some point. I have had inserts go totally solid when hot and then go back to normal when cooled off, the easiest way to check this is to put some much softer springs on with the suspect dampers, drive the car over some bumpy road and then 'bounce' the car by hand at each corner while still hot. Mine were slightly odd in that they would stay 'solid' for days on end, only freeing off when the car was jacked up.
