That killer price on Bilsteins leaves a lot of dough left over for MGD. That is a good thing, cuz those shocks only take 30 minutes to put on. That leaves lots of time for throwin' down. Have fun.

Where do I show up for the party?

I was waiting to see what if any lift we're going to put on. I'm starting to lean toward just 1 1/2" add a leaf. I believe I could use the stock shocks either way then.

I thinking I may just have to order up some shocks. I've always paid about 60-65 per shock. That's agood deal, for Bilsteins.

Spartan,

These are not the 5100's that you are looking for. They are for stock suspensions.
