    Expanded bolt hole on top of driver side shock tower 1997 GMC 3500 - How do I fix?

    Looking at your pics again. it looks like you have the wrong shock in there. Stock shocks have a bushing incorporated in the rubber insert, that bushing is as long as the inside width of the bracket.The bolt clamps the whole shebang solid It appears you don't have that bushing there

    Expanded bolt hole on top of driver side shock tower 1997 GMC 3500 - How do I fix?

    I would drill or file the holes a bit bigger and make 2 bushings with a step on it from a thick wall piece of tubing or a nut drilled to size that will go flush with the inside, then install the shock and weld the bushings to the brackets.

    nightly bleed down worse all of a sudden.

    That clear tube from IP to return has a tendency to get hard over time and lets air in at the nipple, it wont hurt to replace it yearly. Is that IP mechanical ?? If it is, then the leak could be a bad fuel hose between filter and the inlet at the back of the pump underneath the intake plenum
