Mark, all the on-line parts outlets were showing a Bilstein with a welded on lower spring mount.
I've now found a pic of a Bilstein HD unit and see that the body is threaded. Can you confirm that they are the following shock...and what are those "extra threads" all about that you mentioned?
THANKS!

the extra threads allow for more height range adjustment, allowing you to drop the car a bit lower. A few years back (maybe more?) the 30mm extra threaded versions were only available via "special order".

I think it was along time ago that they werent threaded all the way, certainly been threaded all the way down for the last 5 years of stock that Ive seen, as you say Mark, they will all have the full thread wherever you get them now
