Their warranty, like most everybody else’s, is for the original purchaser with proof of purchase. It is a limited lifetime warranty. Wear and tear isn’t covered. From Bilsteins website:

“Many of our products have a limited lifetime warranty. This warranty does not cover wear and tear of the shock. Warranty returns of our products are required to go back through our distributors. If you believe the product to have a manufacturing defect, you will need to reach out to your original place of purchase to discuss your warranty options. Here is a link to our warranty information on our website for your review. CLICK HERE for more Warranty Information.”

I’m not sure about rebuilding them.

Finally got a cold start video this am with the AR Headers, and Magnaflow 18”. Sounds like I need a battery too. [emoji35]

Hehe. Alright. I’ll have to do another with some revs in it. Lol. Sounds damn good driving, but can’t hear much of that with a cell phone recording. [emoji16][emoji106]

Check engine light this am. Unfortunately I don’t have my cheapie code reader with me. Have to see when I get home. I noticed I do have an exhaust leak between the headers, and factory exhaust, so I’m hoping that’s what it is. [emoji1696]

I hate not knowing. Drives me crazy.

@Doubeleive is leading you in the right direction. I think it’s normal wearing iirc you’re lowered on spindles which doesn’t change geometry so there shouldn’t be any wear from lowering per se. Just check for play in components or if you’re concerned and depending on mileage you could opt to just do everything. That’s what I did but I tend to over do things. I just figured at 150 k I didn’t want to mess with doing it piecemeal so I did all the steering and suspension all at once. I used Moog’s Problem Solver line on almost everything except the Pitman arm because I heard about problems with the Moog and went with AC Delco Professional on it. I did all the tie rods, upper control arms, lower ball joints, pitman arm, idler arm and bracket. Not saying you need to but I would consider it depending on your mileage like I said, and taking into consideration your budget and whether anything has been previously replaced.

Rocket Man do you by any chance have your grocery parts list available to share. I was thinking of doing this eventually to my tahoe, but I am worried I miss part or accessory during install.

The list is right there, I listed them all. Inner and outer tie rods (4pcs), upper control arms which include upper ball joints (2pcs), lower ball joints (2 pcs), pitman arm (1piece), idler arm (1piece), idler arm bracket (1piece). I don’t think I’m forgetting anything. Your part numbers will probably be different than my 02 Denali.
