I used that tool to remove the old shocks. Such a cool tool! Worth 10x the asking price, for the amount of trouble it saves.
The Bilsteins have a female hex (uses an Allen wrench) at the top of the piston, and the nut is a 17MM, so no chance to use the tool for installation. Still worth the purchase just for much easier removal.
