Bilsteins or Koni's Workhorse W-22 Chassis?
Which is best? What's the recommendation, pros and cons. Thanks Brian

I have year old Bilstein's on the back and month old Koni's on the from. Both shocks perform the designed function of reducing suspension oscillation and wheel hop. The difference is the Koni's seem to be softer on the initial suspension movement. When I run over a bump the front feels much like my car but once the rear hits the same bump the dishes rattle along with everything else. I guess you could say Bilstein's would be great for a furniture van while the Koni's are a good choice for a people mover.
Something else that was different. The Bilstein's will extend to full length out of the box while the Koni's I had to extend to line up with the suspensions mounts. The effort to compress the Bilstein's was about the same as to extend the Koni's.
