Bilstein shocks
I have been doing a lot of reasearch on upgrading my factory Rancho's on my 350, and want to go with the Bilsteins. I'm just having some trouble picking out the right part for what I need. My truck is stock in the rear and a 2" leveling kit in the front. What part numbers should I be looking for?
Also what is the difference between the normal 5100's and the HD? or is it the same thing?
Thanks,
Kevin

Because you only have a leveling kit, use the stock shocks. As a rule stock shocks can be used for 2" lower or lift. At 4" you must use a different length shock. You could get away with the silver body shocks for a 4" lift, but the valving is most likely different for heavier tires.
