Can i have the dims in the 2d drawing files control the dims in my 3d part
file. So i change the dimension in the sheet and the part file dim will
change automatically?

Yes! But only if they are imported dimensions from the part itself.
See "Insert Model Items" in the help.

This has been standard in SW from day one. But the drawing dimensions have to be imported from the part.
