Walshy should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Bilstein Rebuilds

I'm sure I've asked this before, but does anyone know anywhere that will rebuild steel bodied Bilsteins.

We thought we'd found somewhere, but they don't do them.

They are from a Van Diemen RF'89

Cheers

Bilstein can do it themselves. The UK HQ is near Leicester. We had ours done (not from a RF'89, something a little heavier ). They rebuild them to the original spec and produce a graph to show how close they got. Took them ages mind, but we're happy with the results.

Walshy,
I had mine done twice last year by Bilstein, as they started leaking mid season (apparently they are self lubricating or something!). They took ages but they did a good job - details below:

That is the address - we just dropped them off an picked them up later. I'm afraid we didn't deal with anyone specific, so there is nothing else I can add other than give them a go.

Judging by A Quartermaine's and our experience it seems that "taking ages" is par for the course!
