Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

The fronts are the originals and looking in very poor shape and the rears have been replaced by the PO at some point with Bilstein B4's which look to be in be in very good condition.

I'm going to replace the fronts with B4's but I've lowered the car by 30mm so do I get the standard ones to match to back or the MO30 ones to match the springs.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi All, Whilst swapping the coffin arms and tuning forks I've noticed that the shocks are mismatched. The fronts are the originals and looking in very poor shape and the rears have been replaced by the PO at some point with Bilstein B4's which look to be in be in very good condition. I'm going to replace the fronts with B4's but I've lowered the car by 30mm so do I get the standard ones to match to back or the MO30 ones to match the springs. I can't stretch to replacing all four. Thanks

POST 2Original post

M030, at least they are designed for the springs you have

POST 3Original post

I thought the subject was 'Mismatched socks ' was going to say just leave them ... but as I reread it's 'Shocks' .... got to change them !!!!
