Hey all,
I am buying a torsion key and rear spring spacer level lift kit.
I have been told by the manufacturer that to install this I will need taller/longer rear shocks. I am curious if this is true, or for right now can the shocks I have now work? And if/when I get the rear shocks that are longer length, which ones should I get or where should I get them?

I have heard that you do need them, and you dont but they will be extended to the max.....? So of course I am curious.... If I can get away with the springs I have now working that would be great

I currently have a 2003 with air ride, which is going to have the spring conversion swapped when I do the lift.

Any comments would be appreciated

 

save yourself the hassle and get the new shocks now IMO.

 

i am using the ProRYDE DUCK HEAD TORSION KEY FRONT LIFT/LEVELING KIT and Bilstein 5100 Series shocks and Traxda rear coil spacers. i found this to be the perfect cost-effective 3 inch lift with no ill effect on my 05/H2

 

How do i know what shocks will be longer than stock (if I dont want to go with the bilstein)

 

in general you should aim for long travel shocks that will work with the 3 inch lift
