E320 4matic wagon shock confusion
I went looking for Bilstein HDs for the wagon. Symptoms are very little (if any) damping, and now the right front has started to squeak. 80K miles, and I've already done the outer tie rods and ball joints.
Looking around I don't seem to see any Bilstein HDs listed. That right? I see W0133-1910751, but its a black-body shock, which I interpret as "touring", not the large shaft HDs, which are generally yellow.
Comments from the Zen masters?

Update: I paid an indie to replace the shocks and springs, then I replaced the shocks again when they wore out, then a spring snapped (in 4 places) so I replaced it and now the other spring snapped. One of the shock swaps is here:
