2013 oem shocks

Post by jsemm » Sun Jan 21, 2018 10:46 am

Are the front shocks on the 2012 pw the same as the 2013 pw? I have a 2013 pw and I have called 10 dealers that cannot find a front oem shock for the 2013 pw, they can pull up the rear shock. I was thinking of just ordering shocks for a 2012 since the suspension should be the same. I was going to get aftermarket shocks but I don't think any makes shocks the exact size as the oem. I am worried about loosing articulation with a aftermarket shock. Any info is appreciated.

Yes 10-13 have the same OEM shocks. If they’re toast I’d recommend aftermarket though. The Thuren Overland’s should be the same as stock or really close. As long as you’re in the ballpark you won’t notice the difference

I might have mine.
Believe they have around 25k on them.
Out of town now but can look around in the next day or two. If you would like.
I have a 2013.

I wanted to put the bilstien shocks on from 8 lug but I think the shocks are longer when they are collapsed which might mess up articulation. I heard the 5100s were stiffer as well.

I found all four and you are welcome to have them.
Hope you can put them to use.
