^^^ I know the fan that is not working has burnt pins in the connector of the harness and on the fan motor . So I will pull the shroud/fans to disect . I'm not too worried about it .

Like I said before, going from blown-out shocks to new Bilsteins is going to be a night and day difference. Happy motoring!

The ride is exactly what I wanted smooth in front and stiff in back.

There's a joke or two in there somewhere...

:D

Glad to hear that you are both happy with the new Bilsteins!

Yesterday I decided to send an email to the vendor I purchased the shocks from to provide feedback on the issue I had with the one shock . I figured they might want to know . To my surprise last night I received a reply and from the wording was not computer generated but an actual human :D

They thanked me for the feedback and said they would get with Bilstein on Monday to let them know . Hopefully this was just a random issue but I was impressed with the quick reply and they apparently cared that there was an issue . SmileWavy

Finally found a local performance shop that had the electronic software/equipment to correct the speedometer. I guess they get into the ECM and change parameters like gear ratio and tire diameter . Whatever they did worked , compared to GPS the speedometer is now dead on accurate . That completes the rear axle upgrade , glad I can check off that box .
