Bilstein Shocks
I know many of you love these shocks, and since my truck is getting a little rough over the bumps again, I can either swap the monroe's under the lifetime warranty again, or give these bilstein's a try.
So my question is, how long do these front shocks last under the weight of the 7.3? I've got airbags in the rear so I'm not as worried about the weight on the back end.
I understand about the lifetime warrany, but since I don't exactly let the grass grow under my truck, I'm wanting to know roughly how long until they will need to be changed out.

You would think a truck would only move with a BTS Trans, DP Tuner, 6637, Bills, Hawk Pads, yah...you know how it goes...

My truck is my toy.....not the daily driver. I guess I should have said I've had the Bilsteins for almost 2 years. I've never heard of anybody wearing them out or being unhappy in any way!

So far it looks like Clux has the info I am looking for. I was just hoping for more high mileage feedback.

Well I have definitey beat the CRAP out of them offroading, and they hold up great. And towing they still handle the load well.....heaviest I tow is around 7000 lbs though. That's nuthin for our trucks. Too bad there isn't somebody close to you that has a set. Trust me.......it's like night and day with the ride quality. I always ran crappy Rancho's before, that only lasted like a year.....omg what a difference.
