Default WR Prodrive suspension refresh

Hi everyone,

I'm after some advice about suspension.

I have a 2000 WR Prodrive with the Prodrive upgraded suspension kit- bilstein dampers and eibach springs.
This was standard on the car when it underwent its transformation from standard classic UK turbo to WR Prodrive at new.

I would like to refresh the suspension and I hear the Bilstein dampers are
rare and unavailable now.
Has anyone had their dampers refreshed by Bilstein?

What other parts should I source? Poly bushes,ARB's,top mounts etc?

I'd like to keep the standard spec on damping and springs but refresh and upgrade all other parts if possible.

I would be very interested in everyone's opinions.

The car has done around 70K miles

thanks

Bilstein UK will refurb them. Have a look on Type-RA were people have a wider experience and knowledge base.

Bilstein should be able to source new inserts and replace the bushes.
Or talk to Chevron who has direct links with them.
