Shock question...

I have been loooking around on E bay, will shocks from a 4wd 250 r 350 fit my 2wd 250??? I plan on putting the 4" blocks in the rear, don't know if that matters either. Thanks in advance...

The 4" blocks and 4x4/2wd do matter, as that effects shock length. If you get shocks for the 4x4 and use the blocks in the 2wd, it *may* end up being the same height. I would not buy anybody's used shocks off EBay though. Check out www.offroadwarehouse.com or www.4wheelparts.com for good prices on name brand shocks. I got my Bilstein and Rancho shocks through ORW and the prices were good. They also sell shocks made to the correct length for various lift heights.

Bought the shocks for my 85 F350 dually at Discount Auto very reasonable. They were KYB or Bilstien and were about $40.00 a pair. Dirt cheap when compared to the same brand for one of my Bimmers.
