Re: dual shocks
If they are staggered like this, OEM.

Re: dual shocks
It's an option. I almost prefer the single so the front end isn't as stiff.

Re: dual shocks
No, one is shorter than the other. I don't know if they are valved differently but you may want to ask.
I've been very pleased with my Bilstein 5100's.
