Longtime Troller, Firstime Posting...
Recently completed a front magnetic ride delete on my 2015. After reviewing countless posts and threads, I wanted to share my experience to help others.
After 75k, struts were smoked, one completely seized 2" shorter than the other. Based on some other posts I had two choices ... complete coilover replacements or replace struts only. Decided on the latter, ordered a set of Bilstein 5100s, top hats with bushings KYB SM5861, top mount washers 23206863. Installation was smooth outside of compressing the spring on the seized strut, muscled it with 4 compressors and took my time. Ride is excellent, absolutely best ride since I have owned the truck. Currently have the "service suspension' indication, waiting for my Xinering OBD SS Module to complete, will report back when installed
