i need the model # for the 5100 bilsteins to fit my green keyed truck. i think there 2" longer. i heard they are the BE5-6140-T5 but i went to e-shocks and couldnt find them i did however find this model BE5-6240-T5, but i don't know if these are them. where are you guys getting your shocks at for the best price?

I bought mine from Kennedy diesel for a torsion bar lift. Every thing fit great! check out his site. I think the numbers are BE5-D146-HO and BE5-D147-HO. good luck.

I didn't think they made a Bilstien that was for anything less than a 6" lift..?? I was told for a crank to use Rancho RS9000's because they're 2" longer than stock. That's also why Cognito makes shock extenders because you have a stock length Bilstein and the extender gives it that extra 2".

There are about a few different Bil5100's that will fit a "leveled truck". If you have keys and stock UCA's then you can use 2" overs. But if you are running Cognito UCA's you need alittle more than that because those UCA's drop out farther.

Just order 2" front leveling kit for the front and 2" lift for the back and these were the shock part numbers I was told would work for this application.
