Bilstein 5100 shocks
I was going to order my shocks tonight from 4wd hardware and ran into a glitch.I have the Rusty's offroad 3.25" lift but it is not installed on my jeep and the salesman asked me what length shock I needed.He told me that I could order a shock for a 3",3.5",or 4" lift. Can someone give me the compressed and extended length of the shock they are using for this lift or what length shock they went with ex.3",3.5",or 4"?

So now I have to sneak over to Daves place and tell her that I spent money on beer and hookers instead.

I can give you the lengths for the 2" lift bilstien shocks:
Front- about 3" longer then factory
Rear- about 1" longer then factory ( short I know)
I would go with the next larger size. Compression I would say 1 to 2 inches shorter. Hope this helps.
