Ordered my soft top and new shocks
I opted for the EMU shocks (0-2") vs. the Bilsteins. Went with the "Trek Top" soft top.
Anything has to be better than the ride with these OEM shocks.
I read some posts where the Bilsteins 5100's would be fine for a 0" lift, but the dude from the sales said he wouldn't advise it. So I started researching the OME shocks vs. the Bisteins HDs. OME seemed to be a fan favorite so I pulled the trigger.
Not sure if I got the best deal by going through Quadratec, but what the hell. I needed to do something with the ride this year.
Should I expect anything crazy with this install?

Let me know how you make out. I'm looking for a better ride at stock height as well. The other shock for stock height that is people have recommended is the Edlelbrock Performer IAS.
I've pretty much narrowed it down to one or the other.
