I have an early build 05 RT Magnum (build date of 10/04) that I installed the springs/struts/shocks from a 06 MSRT. I am getting ready to replace the struts and shocks and can't decide what the best bang for my buck is gonna be. Do I go for the stock setup again, Bilstein aftermarket set, or Eibach Pro Damper set?

I also noticed that the Bilstein's have different part number for the front R and L. Why is that? I don't recall seeing a label on the springs and struts when I first installed them. Of course that was 3 years ago so who knows.

Oh, and I don't really care about the self level shocks.

Wow you have worn out the SRT struts and shocks already? I put well over 100,000 miles on my SRT struts and rear Nivomats and they still are tight as a tick. I might be inclined to try the Pedders ones if the SRT ones wear out. I have no experience with them, but the Pedders bushings were outstanding.

The Eibach pro dampers are very good. I've had them for quite a while now. You can't beat their million mile replacement warranty. Thing is, I never met anyone who had to replace one. I don't think you can go wrong with any of the brands mentioned above.
