    Did I over fill this?

    Thats weird, should have seeped out and not blow up like that. Maybe there is grim plugging the seep hole? Maybe un bolt the tie rod from that side and pop the boot off and clean it out and re install and fill again.

    Can I make my 2500 a 3500?

    Really to do it you should upgrade the truck because you will not that I know of be able to get the door tag changed and that's what counts. I may be wrong on this but that's what I had known.

    Can I make my 2500 a 3500?

    To the core difference the 2500HD/3500HD single wheel truck have some frame difference for more load and they have different spring packs. On the air bags most will hold 5000lbs and they say don't exceed truck gvw because they don't want people thinking bags will make there truck into a 1ton...

    It's totally cool man. It sucks when you take all the time to care and yet you still get a issue. There is only 1 guy in the truck/off road section and yes he is a pain to get but a good guy. I have yet to understand why there is only 1 guy but with the way business is now a days you must stay...

    Bilstein front bushings gone!

    Here is a pic of OE shock and how it limits the travel and the Yellow is the same if not shorter: If yours is like this at full drop out then yes adding a spacer would be a good choice. The reason you have not damaged the shock is because you are sitting stock and the suspension has room...

    Bilstein front bushings gone!

    Really what is going on might be a over view witch will be easy to fix or get the understanding of the problem. FYI... The Yellow Bilstien's #BE5-6081-H0 are about 5/8" shorter than full OE suspension travel, so if you find your self topping that shock out you will damage it or the bushings. The...
