The stock nivomat shocks do support the weight of the truck in addition to the springs. If you replace them with regular shocks your truck will lower 2 inches and ride super soft. That is why you have to add Bilstein springs or z71 springs to get the ride height back.

Just a tidbit if anyone has premium ride and wonders why they can't haul any weight after changing rear shocks.

I agree, changed out my rear springs after removing the nivomat shocks.

Got in my truck this morning and cut my arm. Didn't know what it was but then I saw this.... not happy


Also saw a big oil stain in my car port. Hopefully it's an easy fix

Any idea where I can get the back leather and foam?

How the hell did that happen?? Sux you're not local, I'd stitch it for you. Your foam should be fine. An upholsterer can stitch in another piece of leather for you. Weird.

The foam is bad. I can feel the metal frame with slight pressure
