Buy Bilstein at your own risk and thats coming from a previous Bilstein fan.. Bought a set in Feb, noticed them leaking in Mar. Removed, returned, and when I opened up 2 of the replacements they were already leaking. Got 4 more in from the distributor, looked fine and installed in Apr, all 4 were leaking by June 1. Just swapped them out with Ranchos last week.
That's not good!
Considering I have 5 new Bilsteins to go on my old GMC....Another issue. They are listed as direct fit for the model and height of lift kit and NONE of them are right. In fact only the 2 front shocks actually bolt up, but they're too short and only allow 1.5" of extension or axle droop before max extension.
Rears are too short to even bolt up and the steering stabilizer doesn't have the right size bushings.
Not real happy with Bilstein myself right now, but didn't suspect their quality is going downhill.
