3.5" RC Lift and which Bilsteins

[Ziggyboy]

Just ordered the lift for my 09 tahoe 4wd and wanted to know which bilstein for the rear can I run. I asked RC and they said 16 collapsed and 26 extended. Can I just order a set that is a tad bit larger than that on bilsteins website that's specific to the tahoe? Plan on getting the bilstein struts up front too.

Thanks in advance guys!

The 5100s are adjustable. The specs on the ones in this post are about 16"-26" in the rear.

The 5100 FRONTS allow adjustment. Rears do not. Right?

I can't say for sure. Plenty of threads on this subject with that info, though.

I have them. Front allows a few perch locations to increase height.

The rears are not adjustable.

Mans, you fellas know the part # for the front springs? Will the same z71 moog springs for the back work or is it a different part# ? Might as well change dems when changing out the rears.

Read this thread. Page three has PNs in it.

Would it all be the same coil for an LS to a Z71?

I have a Z71
