Rear Lift Question

[haireball]

So I got my rear (sagging) leafs redone by a local shop. The only problem is that it lifted it 2.5" and now my shocks are at the end of their travel and the rear end hops ever time i hit a bump....So what i need to know is what kind of shocks did you replace your rear with and are you happy with them. I was told Bilstein 5100's for about $200 for the rear? anyone agree?

PS The rear end is really stiff too, almost like there are no shocks at all

tghe rear is so damn stiff because of the leafs! if it was done so much that it lifted it 2.5 inchs it is going to be one hell of a rough ride. Wow glad that isn't my rear end. But yes you do need some new shocks if you are ext. out all the way. i have the fabtech ones in the rear but the blistein 5100's will be a nice shock to use. But don't be surprised when you install them and the ride is still rough as hell.. RED
