Hey everyone.
I've kinda hit a bump in the road hear.
I blew a shock on my truck and I think I've settled on Bilstein 5100 or 5160 as the replacement.
I know the truck is lifted or leveled but I'm not sure how much. I measured the block under the rear leafs and they measure 2" so I'd assume a 2" lift in the rear. However I can't figure out the front. The bottom shock mount is clearly extended and measures 3.5" I belive stock is 1" so im thinking 2.5" in the front. My thought is that the extended bracket allows a stock shock to be used even tho its lifted 2.5" but I'm not sure.
If someone could clarify or correct me if I'm wrong that would be greatly appreciated.
