ok calling all gxp owners or those who have up graded with gxp struts i have a question for you. I am in need of struts i was looking into buying used stock gxp struts and having them rebuilt but bilstein said it depends on how the strut is held together.....so my question is where the rod extrudes from the body is the body crimped or is there a c-clip retaining the end cap
 


I can't exactly remember but I heard only the front or back can be rebuilt. You should contact bilstein.
 


If you want to know if a shock or strut can be rebuilt, call the guys at R.E. Suspension at 704-664-2277. They are among the best shock rebuilders and revalvers in the world. If anyone can rebuild it properly, they can, and they probably won't charge as much as Bilstein either.

just got off the phone with them and they said if its crimped they wont touch them and if its not they want 75 to rebuild same as bilstein
 


i can get them dirt cheap and have them rebuilt which would basically be new then.....and matt that normally shows their after market strut which are not the same as the ones on the gxp as the ones on the gxps were made the way gm wanted it not how bilstein wanted it
 
if you can get them that cheap then i guess why not give it a try i didn't read, i didn't know you said you were gonna get them rebuilt lol
