My coach has Bilsteins. Been on for quite a while.... it is at least 7 years ago. I found no receipt from the PO,  (Roy Goetzke) who has been passed that long. Having never driven another GMC how do I determine if my shocks are still functioning to spec ? It seems prudent to keep on top of this. Is the lifetime warranty for Bilsteins just for the purchaser or the vehicle ? 


Thanks

They must be removed for any operational inspection. However, inspection
of one of the fwd rears usually reveals Bilstein's main fault. HInt: Look
for leaking oil.
