2007 Sport V6 - XREAS Leaking? (Pics)

[peebee]

I'll try and keep this short and sweet because I know there are a billion threads on XREAS already.

Went to the dealer for some unrelated work and they stated that my front shocks were leaking and the rears "weren't bouncing back like they should". I've noticed no difference in handling, no body roll, excessive bouncing, etc. so I just blew them off.

No fluid leaks in the garage under the truck. I'm not experienced enough with XREAS to identify a leaking shock, but from the pictures, it looks like the front driver side really is leaking. Can I please get an expert opinion?

FYI, I've already decided that when XREAS goes, I'll replace it with 4600 or 5100 Bilsteins.

Thanks guys.

Looks like it is. 5100's gives you more options if you want or ever want lift.

oh yeah, leaking a little...........

Those are how mine looked when I failed PA state inspection.

Good luck with the billies!

Thanks guys. I was afraid of the news but had already accepted the fact based on everyone else's experience with XREAS.
