Hey Guys,
I am currently trying to find some information about my lift and whether or not I need to replace any components.
My Questions:
1. Are the springs still good?
2. Should I replace any bushings?
3. What type of shock absorbers do I have? I cannot find out any information on either one.
4. What is the reason for the dual rear shock absorber mounts?
5. If the springs are still good, how can I tell what replacement shock absorbers I need? Do you have any recommendations? I looked into bilstein 5100 shock absorbers but I do not know what size I would need. The extended and retracted measurements do not match up with any standard lengths on their list.
6. How can I tell what size lift I have?
7. Am I asking too many Questions?
What I know:
A. The front and rear shock absorbers are shot.
B. I have a 4” front shackle.
C. I have 2.5” rear shackles. Here is a picture of the front and rear shock absorbers. The front absorber is on top.
