how exactly do they work and are they worth adding to get the extra height

I've only heard good things about them. Members here have them. Bump so they can chim in soon.

Just the front Bilsteins are adjustable, but they can provide up to 2.8" of lift. This video should explain pretty well how they work. They are fantastic; I love mine.

I run the Bilstein 5100's set to max 2.8 on the front and the upgraded Zone shocks in the rear. I Love mine and I chose to run them because I had a rake after my lift. I would recommend them. It's also cool pulling next to a lifted truck and being taller.

i have the same problem after i had the skyjacker installed.
there is a 4" spacer on top of my shock , and apperantly skyjacker dont have a fix for the rake.
so can these be combined with the spacer ?
theorytically <sp> the suspension travel is no worse than if it was used without a lift installed ,right?

BTW ,nice forum

I don't see why it would not work. I would call Skyjacker for that anwser to be sure. I had a .8" spacer I had to remove to install mine but I'm not 100% sure with a 4".

I think I ordered mine around the same time as you and they dont get SHIPPED until 11/16 to 11/21...

Yep my receipt says 11/15 thru 11/21 and I wish I would have seen that before clicking the damned button.

But what the hell it saved me $60.00 from ordering elsewhere. I guess I can wait.

i did,
they were LESS than helpful and borderline hateful about me not happy with their setup and work of one of their reps.
i asked to order what they said i needed ,THEN they referred me back to the guys who did the install to begin with.
guess they did not understand that i was NOT happy with the installer and i was at a loss.
now here i sit trying to fix what i did NOT intend to work on.

LOL
