I posted this request for info on a reply to another thread but thought I should start my own thread here...
I am trying to find the correct part number for Bilstein shocks (either 4600 or 5100) front and rear. The problem is making sure the rear shocks are the right ones since my truck (see sig) has rear auto air leveling.
The 4600s I found "seemed" to be correct, but there is a disclaimer for the rear shocks (part (24-238533) on the Bilstein website saying "without air leveling suspension".
I measured the rear shocks from center of mounting eyelet top to bottom right at 23" as the truck sits empty. There is always some amount of air in the bags since it is part of the normal suspension operation, not just for supporting heavy loads.
The length of the Bilsteins seem to be right as far as overall length, but for some reason they are saying they won't work, no explanation as to why?
Anybody deal with this and find a solution i.e. the correct part number? Appreciate any feedback...Thanks,
