KW Rear Driver Side---Blown
My KW got blown after one year of use. I was checkin it this morning and I could see the oil poured out of the shock absober. I thought it would last long, but I was mistaken.
I will try to if I can use my warranty. To KW users, hows your KW? peace out.

Well....I can tell my front is a little bit more bouncy than before. I have a little over a year on them, and don't abuse them. My dampners are cranked as far as they will go. I don't notice any leaking, but I can tell they aren't as stiff as before. Good thing about them is the warranty....Let us know how it goes.

Ocelaris just talked to jedo and he just installed the upper mounts. That is what is causing the noise. IT is probably not tight or installed correctly. TAke some pics Bill.
