I'm in the market for some aftermarket shocks (custom length) and everything I find is only the "eye" style mount on the top of the shock. Since our trucks use the Stem or threaded stud type, the choices are limited. What I would like to find is a way to convert the front shock mount from the stud type to the eye style. Any comments on this would be helpful.

 

Never mind. I did some searching and found that with the Bilstein 5150 Series they make an adaptor for what I need. Basically you can unthread the eye on one end of the shock, and thread on this adaptor that has a threaded rod on the top of it. So I decided to go with the 5150 series on all 4 corners.... just after I figure out how long and short of shocks I need. The threaded rod adaptor number from Bilstein is #192228. I saw them going for about $20 each, and the website didn't say if it worked with any other Series shock.

 

Hi, I am also buying the 5150 series for my 03 1500. What was the website you found that adapter on? Thanks for the help.
