No they might have punched through...more likely if you have stiffer shocks. I had two sets fail before switching to Rogue Engineering

Ok, I'm not sure if they have. However, I'll check again. I looked at one side the other day and everything appeared to be normal from both the trunk and the wheel well.Originally Posted by Sockethead

my first set didn't punch all the way through but the rubber was completely torn through all the way around and ready to punch through.
The second set punched all the way through... the whole shock shaft was up in the cabin.... I had some pics on here somewhere of both sets

If you find them, that would be great!

Yesterday my mechanic called about the ZHP and the work needed to be done. Here's the rundown:
- Driveshaft: Center bearing support was worn out
- Coolant leak: Hose from expansion tank to engine is leaking and is also being corroded from power steering hose leak
- Power Steering Pump/Hose: Hose is leaking and needs to be replaced
- Diff fluid service per request.
Overall, not a cheap visit. About $1700 including labor. The good news is that the noise I'm hearing in the rear is not a metal-on-metal. It is the tires rubbing due to the springs finally starting to settle after 40.000mi. Part of me wanted to do the driveshaft myself. That said, no time due to trying to find a new house. The Denver/Colorado market is crazy! :/
