I carried the shock into my local hardware store that sell M10 x 1.0  and
they didn't fit on the shock tower, I'll check again maybe the nut was mis
labeled.
Thanks for the input guys. Next I will call Bilstein if I can find a
number. I called one number but they never answered. I'll keep you posted
on my quest.
