Looking for new shocks
I just bought a 2000 xlt 4wd and I'm looking for new shocks. I'm interested in the bilstein 5100. My problem is I can't seem to find any for the 4wd with out a lift. My truck has a 3inch body lift. Can anyone show me where I can find some that will work on my truck? If they don't make them for my application van anyone recommend a suitable replacement that is an upgrade over OEM? Thanks guys!

I went to rock auto and bought bilstien for mine. they were closing out the rear ones so I got a deal on them. the front I had to get from the shock warehouse. rides and handles much better . it had the original rancho on with 185 k . I pushed them in and they didn't come back out so they were worn out.

Monroe, 2x
I installed cheapest Monroe at about 70K miles...1997 XLT 4WD, single cab, full bed.
They got replaced at about 98k miles with Monroe Reflex. Much better ride but not enough miles yet to speak to durability. The basic Monroe didn't hold up well, but they were $24 each...
