We have two sets left of the outstanding Bilstein High Performance B6 SYNCRO Shocks / Struts with 16" valving priced at $630 a set - which is substantially lower than you'll find anywhere else.

Factory prices have gone up so our new stock will cost more when they arrive.

If you match them with a set of our Syncro Springs (also on sale for 10 days), you'll save over $100.

The Bilstein B6 are hands down the best performing Syncro shocks on the market - with the possible exception of the Radflos and FOX - which cost twice as much or more and require regular maintenance.

Great News! The price of Bilstein B6 Syncro High Performance shocks/struts has come down significantly post-covid.

We have a limited quantity of full sets available.

Click the link below for 16" valving. Message us for 14" valving, or visit our website.

The B6 Series are Bilstens High Performance, fully rebuildable shocks-struts for the T3 Syncro. The B6 come in 14 inch and 16 inch valving, true to VW factory specs.

Are you rebuilding your front end or replacing bushings soon?
If so, be sure to wait to tighten up the bolts with affected bushings until the vehicle is sitting back on the ground and under it's own weight.

Failing to do so can cause the bushings to prevent the vehicle from settling back down completely to its static height - they can artificially hold it a tad higher. The frame geometry magnifies this difference and your front can end up sitting higher than it should as a result. It's also hard on the bushings.

The video is not of a Vanagon, but nevertheless shows what happens to the bushing once the vehicle is lowered.

We stopped by Burley Motorsports to do some needed maintenance after spending 3 months deep in the Mojave desert - covering over 400 miles of dirt road and doing some testing.

We are extremely proud that BMS is long time distributor of Schwenk Springs.

BIG NEWS! Our Vanagon Westy springs got a nice upgrade at the factory this past manufacturing run that was just completed. The front springs are now wound from a lighter more exotic and expensive steel - and in the process have shed 2+ pounds each. That means less unsprung weight and thus better performance. And that’s why our springs are the lightest on the market.

We make upgrades to our springs at every opportunity and are always looking for ways to improve performance.

P.S. All spring designs are now in stock and ready to ship.

Now available, Bilstein B6 shocks for Syncros and Vanagons.

The Syncro B6 comes with two choices in valving - 14" damping and 16" damping. This echoes VW's decision to provide shocks with different valving for the 14" and 16" Syncros (the "C" vs. the "N" versions of the original Boges) from the factory.

The valving for the 16" Syncro is modestly stiffer in both rebound and compression - but enough so that it is definitely noticeable. Other than that, the two models are identical and can be used on any Syncro.

The B6 is a step up from their standard B4 OEM replacement shock. Better materials, a monotube design, and better valving. They are really impressive on the big, gnarly stuff.

We will be offering the B6 for the Vanagon, too, although the Konis remain the shock of choice for Vanagons, generally, due to the twin tube design and adjustable rebound damping.

The Syncro D/P Standard (Std.) springs will finally be here - in 2 weeks. I know - it's taken forever - but we will sell no spring before its time. ;-)
The D/P Std. springs are Dual-Purpose, on/off road springs for the lighter syncros - TinTops, Weekenders, DOKAS, etc. This run will feature the 2nd revision to the D/P Std. design - we tweaked the heights front and rear 1/4" + each in order to lower the front and raise the rear. Height on a stock tintop should be about 19.4" front and rear.

There are some other small refinements as well - including a tough new powder coating, notched end and labeling.

You can order them at the link. Or send us an email for a special discount to make up for all the waiting - [email protected] (Y)
