I have a 2021 BB 4 door, with no real options except the auto transmission. I picked up a set of the Bilstein shocks off of a 2022 2Dr WT SAS. I know that there are different part numbers depending on the application, but my question is this. Is the geometry of the frame and shock mounts such that the different parts have different physical dimensions?
Will I be able to bolt these up to my truck or not? I only paid about 300 bucks for all four with springs, so I am not that stressed about having to sell them.
Here are the part numbers for what I have:
MB3C-18080-RAJ
MB3C-18045-RAJ

Thank you for any information!

yes, few threads on it. just be aware of vehicle weights.

BB in a 4D 2.3A
2498 front/4487 total

WT 2D
2633.5 front/4749.1 total

so you may be sfiffer and the front may be more leveled. disclaimer: i'm no expert but have looked into this.

They fit but the spring rate is different you should use a 4dr set. Have you installed these yet?

There are numerous sets for 4 doors for sale, I am looking for a 2 door set. I would be willing to buy these from you if you locate a 4dr set you want. I will send the link for the Spring load chart based on model, doors, trans and motor so you can see the difference. I believe there is a 200lb increase in the fronts for a WT 2 dr so your 4 door spring rate would be too stiff?
See the post above from FORD with the chart.
