I can't open the link shown in this post, but just for comparison you can buy a complete set of Bilstein 5100's that are advertised specifically for that year PW from Thuren Fabrication for under $500

No I have not as truck is in shop. But Bilsteins website and a shop I called both and all that comes up are the Bilstein 5160 Reservoir shocks as only option for my truck as if it came stock with those. I'm curious what did come stock on the 2013's. Because right now front and Back are the 4600's but im gonna go with 5100's. I know all 3 of them options would work. I am gonna go with the 5100's though just not sure what size I need for rear cause it looks like it's for 0-1 inch lift on the rears and front are 0-2.5. Which is what I am confused by because I thought these 2013 Power wagons came stock lofted 2.5 inches. I was hoping someone has already done this and has a part #

Check out shock surplus. I know you can get a plus 2” lift front and rear 5100 shock from them. You have to get them separate them from the 4 shock package. In other words look at the front pair separate from the rear and you will have different lift options.

But to answer you question from before. Yes you would need at least 2in lift front and rear since that is what your truck has from the factory.

They did not come from the factory with 5160 Reservoir shocks. The 4600s on it were the factory available shock.

It's not 2.5", it's more like 1.5 front and 1 rear over a stock 2500.

Oh ok. So the 5100 1 inch will work then?
