Help with rear shocks for lift

[kyle2090]

Hey guys,

 

Trying to get some rear shocks for my 2-3" lift that i ordered. The 4wheelparts reps say that there is no compatible shocks.... Anyone know what ones I can use?

 

Thanks in advance

Well for pathy up to 95 you can use f250 2wd rear shocks on the rear, stock size of course. Years would be 95 f250. For the front you can use 88 Bronco 2 front shocks. Some minor modification is needed to make them fit. You have to drill out the bushings on the rear shocks and I believe the stem on the front shock is a little larger than ours so that has to be addressed.

Are you getting the lift springs? Different shocks are not really needed with that lift, I did not get any, and if you do get longer shocks you will need to extend the rear brake lines IIRC.

I have 2.5" of rear lift and use bilstein 5100 #24-185509 for rear shocks. This is the part number for the 5100s offered by 4x4 parts.
