ok so i found out my rig has the wrong shocks on it
the fronts are for the older jeep p/u with 3" of lift, and the rears are for a ford with 10"+ of lift
so the fronts are 2 short, and the rears 2 long
so i'm looking at getting the proper shocks, i was looking at the procomp es9000's but have heard mixed reviews
i'm looking for something that will give me a comfortable ride on the road, but will keep my tires on the ground when i wheel
i've had bilsteins on my sports cars and loved them, but i dont know anything bout there truck shocks
anyone have any experince with the 5100/5125 series by bilstein
what other shocks are good?
btw stock shock specs:
Compressed Length 12.625 inches
Extended Length 20.375 inches
Travel 7.750 inches
so i need a shock with an extended length of at least 26", right?
also: can the BPE's be used in the rear to?
