Default another question about shocks

So heres my truck
-2004 ram 1500 5.7, 3 inch body lift, 2.5 supermaxx keys, 2 inch rear blocks, superchips, and 35" tires.

just ordered Bilstien 5001 shocks for the rear and im still trying to find a shock for the front. Im wondering if the 2500 shocks will fit, i know they have a taller stance, but not sure if the shocks are the same.

Does anybody know of a 2" longer shock for the 1500's??

thanks.

well, i know for sure that 2wd 2500 shocks are 2" longer and will fit a 2wd 1500, but not totally sure for 4x4. might give one of the shock companies a call, see what they have to say.

I'm glad you don't have an o6, but your shock is not gonna be two inches longer unless you go after market, But the front is still a reg shock correct. In that case your gonna have top find a part number and stick with it.

Check here. When I got mine (rough country) I was able to order them 2" longer.
