W123 steering & suspension parts advice?

My 85' 300D needs some help with the steering and suspension. I plan on an all out rebuild on the suspension, not to race and I do not care for OEM. I want stuff that will work and work well for the next 150000 miles or so. This is what I have found but not sure who makes a better part than others.

Bilstein shocks are first rate. HD (or sport if you join Vogtland spring buy, see sticky post at top) should last longer.

Meyle makes pistons and is a good German company.

I put armorall on rubber before putting into suspension (allow a day or two to dry before driving),

Best,

Alan

I have not ordered anything yet. This is a wish list from AUTOHAUS.COM. They have been the cheapest on other items I have bought, and free shipping. They also have other brands for some of these same items that I listed, I'm just not sure of the better ones. TRW is a brand name I know something about and used them on my 67' nova. I will also rebuild the rear brakes at the sametime, fronts have been done for about 4 months.

This the best price I found for Bilistein shocks.....http://catalog.eautopartscatalog.com...Shock+Absorber

Not sure if I want the HD or Comfort shocks.
