Our 850 GLT wagon just got fresh HD Bilsteins at 87k. The original OEMs were shot. How do I know? When I disassembled the front strut/spring unit the shocks piston rod recessed into the strut body from gravity!? Replace both now with the spring seats or replace a whole bunch of other stuff as well later on. i.e. A-arm bushings, anti-sway bar stuff, blah blah blah. The longer we wait the more expensive it gets.
