I bought some Bilstein Sport's from a ht member a few months ago, and UPS lost the front shocks. The rear shocks that I got from the member here, had Bilstein dust covers on them. I ordered the front shocks from shox.com, which arrived here today. No dust boots though. It's wierd because when I ordered a set of Bilstein HD's for my 4Runner, they came with dust covers.

 

I would run them for peice of mind. If you can reuse the stock boots, look into Rancho rubber dust boots. You can get them through any autoparts place, theyre about $8 a peice and are really tough.. theyre most common in red, but you can order them in black and a few other colors.

 

OH, could you PM me when youve got the shocks installed, I'm interested to here how you like them.
