I just got the new 1.5" TM leveling kit installed along with new sway bar end links, and Rancho RS5000 shocks and struts. I took before and after pics to show the difference in how it looks. I believe my truck must have come from up north, because the shop had a helluva time getting them changed out due to the rust on all the bolts. It was a real pain!!

 

looks good

 

did the shocks and struts add any height?

 

I don't believe the shocks themselves added any height. I installed them with the leveling kit, so I'm not sure how they would have done by themselves.

 

What shocks did you use? and were they all 4 or just in the rear?

 

just askin, cause I cant find a part number for the fronts. My auto store knows nothin g about them either. If I have a PN, then we may be in buisness

 

front- RS5757
rear- RS 5315

 

Yep, Mahadigas, you're right. I ordered the struts for the front and the rear shocks from Central 4 Wheel Drive. Shockwarehouse.com no longer carried the front struts or something like that. The day before I ordered them, the front struts were no longer available and the rear shocks went up $30 a piece. Anyway, I replaced both front struts and both rear shocks, and installed the TM 1.5" leveling kit at the same time. The truck looks so much better and rides much better too! Well worth it.

 

could you post a pic of the Rancho struts?
