Contacted Bilstein today and they said they will replace the faulty shock after putting it through testing. I am including the other rear as well and they will check it out and make sure the specs are equivalent. They said they have not had to replace a rear Volvo 240 HD since 1998, which makes me a little concerned, but when the rears were switched which resulted in the same damn clunk switching sides I firmly believe it is the shock. I'll report back when I know more...right now have Boge Autos in the rear...no clunks but can feel difference in firmness!
Best,
-Adam
