I have a 2004 f-350 psdcc with a 2" leveling kit installed, and I need to replace the cheap pro comp shocks. I want to get the bilstiens but I don't know if the regular bilstiens will fit correctly or do I need a longer shock? Plus who has the best buy on them? Thank You

Yes, the stock bilstiens will work with most leveling kits. The next set up will be for a 4" lift. Jobber on them should be in the $85 dollar range, so anyone who can keep it around $90 is giving you a deal. I usually figure a $100 each retail.

I got the regular Bilsteins (BE5-2818-H0 Fronts, BE5-2819-H0 Rears) a few weeks ago from eshocks. They list for $121 and they sell them for $64.95 each. I got all four for $259.80 delivered.

Yes i would have to say don't pay more than $75 a shock. My 5100 Bilsteins were 67.50 a piece, for 4.5-7" lift. I would say that the regular ones are cheaper. Still the best shock out there IMHO.
