Default Shocks for 4x2 with 4" Lift

Hi, first time post. I just acquired a new Rancho lift for my '96er , p/n RS6274. I just can't wait to install it. The problem is the kit recommends RS99276 and RS99112 shocks. Great shocks but, I don't want to crawl under the truck or spend another 500 bucks to adjust a dial. I would prefer a set of bilsten 5100 shocks or Pro Comp. Does anyone have the full part number?

Ah dude that would be sick to make a prerunner. I've heard that alot of people are complaining that non-adjustable shocks eventually get too mushy. Rancho doesn't make a kit for a 2X4 2001 Ram do they? I can't seem to ever find one...

I think it's pretty self explanatory. The 9000 Series are Universal. He just needs to order the length he needs. For me it was +2 inches. For him, +4.

WTF?! Rancho told me they no longer made a lift kit for the 00-01 2WD Rams. Is that ebay lift legit? I can't believe that crap. I want one... Dude can you post some pics when you can of your lift? I want to get a general idea of the look....
