Hi guys I'm looking to put some bilstein 5100 2.8's on the front but I want to keep some rake I was thinking either a 1.5 or 2 inch spacer in the rear but I'm having a really hard time finding shocks that will compensate for 2 inch lift in the rear would really like to run bilstein 5100 all the way around but the only ones I see are 0-1 lift somebody please save me from this madness!!! Haha thanks guys

Also this is my first post on the forums and I don't know if I put my specs on here but it's a 2014 ram 1500 crewcab outdoorsman 4x4

BE5-6249-H5 (updated Bilstein part # 33-185569) with 77-87027 Superlift bushing kit is what is used for the 3" and 5" Superlift lift applications. So I'm assuming it would work for a 2" as well...

Hmm I'll definitely check into that can anyone confirm or have a part number for shocks other than Bilsteins that will compensate for +2 inches in the rear I'm pretty sure fox offers some but at 50 dollars more than bils each not sure there worth it

I have 2" progressive rate coil springs in rear with stock shocks.Rides great.I heard anything greater than 2'' is when you need longer shocks.

Hmm I've heard anything greater than 1 inch required rear shocks that's awesome if it's up to 2 inches on the stockers I might not even have to worry about them then! Thank you for your input anyone else have luck with the stock rear shocks and over 1 inch lift in rear?
