Bilsten's

[04white-z71]

Alright guy I have a quick question I have an 04 with keys and 1.5" spacers in it and I want to order some Bilsten 5100's for it. Which ones am I going to need with this setup? Originally it was a generic rough country lift but the shocks haven't even lasted a year. BTW I tried to search without any luck.

Thanks,
Mark


Some pictures for good measure.

I think the stock replacement 5100s go up to an inch over stock...I'd contact bilstein but I bet they'd work .5 over advertised.

Go to Autoanything.com and put your year/make/model in. Go thru and find the Bilstein 5100's. The fronts are made for up to 3" lift and rear says up to 1". I just bought all 4 today for $283 to my door. First time buyer, you get 15% off and it's free shipping. You just have to enter your email and they send you the discount code to use. I thought it was a decent deal.

I've been meaning to ask you about he rears you had listed. Are those longer then the ones meant for the Yukon? I just went with the ones specifically for my Yukon and they are supposed to be for 1" lift although I'm going with 2" spacers. Hope I got the right setup.

The Dodge rear shocks are long and can handle 3" spacers. The stock rear shocks can handle 1" spacers so the ones you order will be fine with 2" spacers. It only really matters when you off-road and maximize travel out of the rear then you will hit the limit stroke of shocks.

Thanks man! That's kinda what I figured. It doesn't get off road any more than maybe thru a field.
