I suppose it kind of make a little sense. If the piston is designed to ride in a certain region of the shock and now I have added 1” +/- to that it now rides in a unintended place. Not sure if the Pro Bilsteins have internal valving.
To me it definitely feels like something is making contact. But I know Toyota had issues with the early pros Bilsteins and to my knowledge that’s why they switched the Fox.

You need to go back and tell that "shop boss" he's as dumb as a box of rocks! That's total BS!!! Did you look at my post to my lift I referred you to? I'm lifted 2.5" on stock Pro shocks with a longer and heavier spring. Mine are as quiet as stock. Many other people are listed on stock Pro shocks. I think you need a new shop that knows what they are doing our learn to wrench yourself.
What issues did Toyota have with early Pro Bilsteins??? They used them for 4 years and I haven't heard of any issues like this. I have two Pros, a 16 and a 18, and they have no issues. Not sure what prompted the switch to Fox but my guess is the Tundra and Tacoma were already using them.
