Default Where do I get Bilsteins revalved?

I've searched quite a few times and I saw people post plenty times about getting Bilstein's revalved, but I need to find out where do I do this. Does Bilstein themselves do it?

I have a chance to get a killer deal on a Bilstein shock/Pro-kit spring combo, but the owner doesn't have any idea how many miles are on them.

Is it in my best interest to get the shocks revalved and possibly go from there?

I need your help guys.

Thanks in advance.

Hmm no takers huh? Well I sent an email in at stranoparts to get a quote, I heard they do it.

I guess I'll go ahead and make use out of this thread. As far as spring/shock combo, would the revalves and the pro-kit be good for 98% street driving?

I know I'm gonna sacrifice ride quality since it isn't OEM, but I don't want it to ride like a crappy lowered Honda like ones I've ridden in.

Strano is the only person who does it, I believe.

They'll match the Pro Kit just fine after Sam gets finished with them.

Bilstein Will re-Valve the Shocks to your specifications. it used to be like $35.00 a shock if I remember correctly. of course you have to know what valving works for your spring.

Strano sends Bilstein the specs, and they build the shock.

Yes, I was just commenting that Bilstein will do it for anyone.
