    I've used the KYB top hats @TRDFerguson posted on several Bilsteins. They aren't quite as durable as OE, but one set went 100k miles, so for the money I'll take them. The top bushings were toast by then, but so were the molded in lower bushings on the 6112's..

    I just realized that I never keep a suspension setup long enough to run into that issue :anonymous:

    :rofl::rofl:

    Well, I'm starting to follow suite. I think I'm on my fifth setup since the first set of 6112's on my '13 - and that was probably the third or fourth setup I tried. My '21 is on it's third setup (if you count stock) and I just bought it in December :bananadead:

    It is a sickness.

    Appreciate the nod, but my vote is also to pick up the KYBs that Jake linked. They work like a charm, and I can confirm that’s the correct part number! There’s no money in selling top hats, unfortunately!

    I am glad that I put the right part on my shocks over the years though. Would have been really awkward if I found that out tonight…

    You’re out here dropping links to the competition and Bezos land. Not sure what you want me to do! :duh:

    But I like the challenge of making an incorrect part work correctly…
