So, it looks like Hotchkis rear shocks 71020015 are out of stock everywhere indefinitely. Summit shows a ship date in June. I have the fronts, 70020013, but was waiting to get the rears, and now I'm stuck. How about using Bilstein rears? OR Qa1, Viking, etc.? Do they mix?
I'm using Hotchkis HSS-24385 -1" springs.

I ordered hotchkis shocks and front sway bar at the end of December. I got the shocks in late February and the sway bar just came in this week. They were well worth the wait!
I traded some emails with their sales department. They are have some supply chain issues on raw materials. That seems to be the norm with everything right now.

Did you end up ordering the Hotchkis rear shocks or finding replacements? When I ordered my front and rears from Summit it had a ship date of June, but they arrived a few weeks ago.

Same here. I ordered them from Summit and got them a few weeks later.
