I got bilstein shocks for all 4 corners and im curious as to what i should do for the rear. I'm wanting about 1inch of lift for the rear so im not looking nose high with the bils set at 2.8.

A set of Superlift 140 rear springs will get you about 2". They are dual rate, so you'll get a softer ride when not hauling a load.

I have these springs installed and the are great however
You will need new shocks that are 2" longer than stock
Stock shocks dimensions are 26" expanded and I believe 16" collapsed you will need to add 2" to those dimensions the ass end will be very unstable and the stock shocks will be maxed out I had to have a friend sit on my tailgate to get the bolt though just so i could drive to work
ask me how I know
