Here in the lower 48 you can get them just about any where. Up there I don't know. JD :confused:

Try giving Kennedy Diesel a call. I don't know his policy regarding export orders, but I'm sure he will have a solution or suggestion. I bought a set some time ago. Best price anywhere and fast shipping (free at the time). www.kennedydiesel.com (http://www.kennedydiesel.com)

Free shipping for all Bilstein set of 4ea orders shipped to US. Canadian orders only adds about $15 US.

The reason for free shipping for online only with these is to try to reduce my phone time and keep the lines free for tech and questions.

Sounds tempting but the taxes and duties for items coming into Canada at the border would probably add another $100 to the price.IE:I ordered a metal rib replacement part for my hot tub umbrella from Georgia.price $22.Taxes and duties $12.I will be going to Astoria Oregon for a week holiday. I would like to purchase and install them there if possible.

Note--- Camping World doesnt sell Duramax shocks, I tried last march. Best bet for a Canadian is have Kennedy or whoever ship your order UPS overnight, DO NOT ship via FEDEX GROUND (fedex and fedex ground are different companys) that will take 3 to 4 days or longer (10 days for my delivery). and like you say dont ship across the border (eg. brokers fees and duty for a $140.00 item $73.00)please return to sender.

good luck

Can't bilseins be bought in Canada? I'd be surprised if that's the case. Plenty of suspension specialty shops in my area. I'll need to call around. I'm thinking it's shock time. Ride seems mushy and I'm getting about 3 bounces when going over the monster speed bumps around here. If I can't get bilseins whats the next choice? Koni, Ranchos?

Thanks,
Paul

I bought mine from Kennedy and the duties were zip and the brokers fee was 9.00. The post office didn't bother to add on GST or PST.

There were shipped US Parcel Post and took 7 days from ordering. Saved money and got them faster than any of the shops around me in Ontario.
