Shock Help!
Hey guys I am wanting to upgrade my front shocks, I think mine are worn out and its making the front of my truck sit too low. I know I want to go with Bilstein but I am not sure which ones to get. I want the stock height but with better performance.
This is what I found

Just want to point out that shocks won't change you ride height. Unless they are the wrong shock and are bottomed out and holding the truck up. This would ride terrible and you would know something wasn't right. I would recommend you get the height where you want it and then select your shock. Good luck.

Hear, hear! Check Rock Auto for the shocks. I got my Monroe Reflex from them for only 'bout $38 each. Tenneco may still have the rebate on Monroe and Bilstein.
