shock travel...
Guys, I need new shocks. The Bilstein HD's i have in there right now are way too short, and are ripping up my bushings. I was looking at the 5100's, but the lengths don't match up. The shocks I have right now sit at 16" neutral. I need about 3-4" of both up and down travel, so 12" collapsed and 20" extended, although the Bilstein specs don't match up with that.

i ordered mine from Trail-gear.com
but you can get them from summitracing.com or allprooffroad.com
there's gotta be other places but thats where i spend most of my time, hell give bilstein a call and tell them what you need, maybe they have just the shock and can give you a part number to bring to a distributor

okay, called the bilstein rep and told him i needed a 5100 with 8" travel
he said either the BE5-6526-H5, or the BE5-6528-H5. However, when i search those part numbers online, it says they could fit either an F-150 or a '83-97 4WD Ranger with a 6" suspension lift.
I have only a 3" suspension lift, so I searched some more and I found the BE5-6215-H5, which is for 4-5".. sounds better. what do you think?
