OK, I am pretty sure that those are going to be my next set of shocks.... So I'm looking at 5150's and if I'm not mistaken 255/70 is the valving that's more desirable?

Anways, two questions: do they have internal bumpstops? and... where can I get the best deal on 'em?

THanks

edit: one more thing... when I replace the eye with the post up front... how does the height change for the measurement?

Great shocks.

I suspect no internal bumpstops since I have busted one due to bottoming it, very unforgiving of banging it.

Best price? I dont know, probably lots of options in socal. I got mine at T&J performance.

but his shipping wont! his price is low on the product but super high on the shipping. youll pay the same if not a little more.

You're not gaining much with the 5150 over the 5125... If you need the reservoir go to the 7100.

I've bought my shocks from eshocks.com, if they have your item in stock in my experiences it ships damn quick. They're in Michigan and shipments to Chicago occassionally came next day or at worst took two days.
