I am hoping for some advice/info on some new shocks. I currently have an 05 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 with a 6" BDS Suspension lift on in (which means 4" in back). I want to replace with the Bilstein 1500 series shock...unfortunately, nobody can help me with which ones I need. Bilstein says they don't have specs for my year model (lifted). I've found on other sites where they list my year model & lift but when you compare to Bilstein site, they say those are only for the 25/3500. Called Bilstein and they asked for measurements, etc., then gave me a part number, which is listed online as made for Ford!! If I can't get Bilstein, I really just want some good ones that aren't an arm and a leg...any suggestions?

I talked to FOX about it 2 weeks ago they said they a unaversal shock for the Front that will work for us 6" lifted guys in the front. Part #FOX-985-24-008
