Bilstein rear shocks

[Clio_romford]

Hi guys.
I’m looking to replace my 182FF (cup I believe) rear shocks
Theres a guy locally who is selling these bilstein ones. He advised me that I will need some nuts and washers, can this be taken off my original shocks?
If not I have an old knackered set of ktec rear shocks, wondering if they are the same rubbers and nuts

My old ktec ones

Thanks in advance

Hi

Any help would be appreciated. I know the b14 shocks use a m9x1 nut for the top which is different to most kits/standard. These can be purchased from a nut/bolt store or a bilstein supplier.

However I cannot confirm about the washers that sit on the shocks. I believe these can be bought from the same place as the nuts. @Louis where did you get your nuts from?

m9 x 1 is common on push bikes. or to do it the cheapskate way drill an m8 nut with an 8mm drill bit and tap it to m9, had to do two today as i forgot to get nuts!!

These are the washers that are needed.
