Anyone know what part numbers the new dual live valve shocks are? I looked up shocks for a 24 R VIN and got all sorts of stuff including ml3z18125bn/bl which are on my 35 so definitely not the right shock for that truck.
Or the current part numbers on paper for an already produced vehicle have fallen behind new production. Seems like a lot of part numbers exist for these shocks. I guess looking at a 24 on the lot would likely be the way to figure out which it is.
It’s interesting how everyone is getting different part numbers. Do the stickers on the backside of the reservoir match what’s written or are they the ml3v18w002/3?
Another thing that I’ve noticed making noise over bumps… distinctly different from the suspension noise, but noticeably from the rear and audible from in the cab. Some of the plastic clips that hold it in place had worked themselves partially out. Pushed them back in and so far much better. This...
We got people on here talking about installing all sorts of random stuff that has no tangible benefit when your truck is a pavement princess and here we are in a ppf thread with people talking about how something isn’t worth it if your truck is a pavement princess.
I’ve been debating doing full...
One interesting data point… BCM got reprogrammed with presumably the most current version to fix a weird issue with the door locks. Haven’t noticed any low battery related behavior since then.
There’s also other random stuff that is surprisingly loud. There’s some plastic trim of sorts between the bed and the cab down near the frame that makes more noise than you’d expect. It used to not do it, but these things happen.
The clunk when bouncing on it isn’t a perfect test. It will always make noise. There is a difference in volume with affected vehicles. It’s much louder. Also will feel like something might be loose.
It comes down to what surface you want to be bottoming out on. I don’t think the shock bodies are designed for the massive shock loads you get during a bottom out. Bumps on the other hand should be. So I would slap a 1” spacer in there.
