So, I took my truck in for inspection the other day. Failed because the rear 5100's are leaking fluid, which is grounds for a failed inspection in Maine.
However, according to Bilstein, fluid seepage from the shocks is considered "normal" and is not grounds from replacement under warranty.
Part of me is temped to take a can of brake cleaner to the shocks and immediately go for inspection. But, that doesn't solve the real problem at hand.
Here's some pictures of the shocks.

I'll be contacting Bilstein on the matter and will post up my results.
