2008 QX56 - 145k | Getting ready to axe the air shocks and replace with standard gas shocks. Currently my air shock is 14 1/4" eye-to-eye, but my wheelwell height is lower than it's supposed to be by a couple inches. I'm assuming a shock with a 12"-18" travel range. This is where the guesswork is coming in...wondering if anyone has used a specific Bilstein that puts the unladen wheelwell height close to OEM 36.89"
