    I’ve got information overload going and need some help from the pros.
    My rig is due for shocks and I would like to get it level. If I keep the original springs will the set below do the job? What setting would the fronts need to be set at? Will I need an alignment?

    Amazon has the set delivered at $340 which I thought was a pretty good price.

    Bilstein adjustable front - Part# 24-239370
    Bilstein Rear - Part# 24-186728
    Thanks in advance.

    Your links are not coming up. The page can't be found...

    But if you're getting the Adjustable Bilstein 5100s in the front, the 3rd ring up (2nd from the top), gives you about 1.75" lift from stock, should make your truck level. I have a double cab long bed, and that's what I did, and it sits perfectly level.

    I don't know if it'll be different since you have a regular cab, you might end up with a bit of bro lean, but maybe someone else with a reg cab can weigh in.

    This is basically what I did about 6 or 7 years ago. 5100's with stock springs, and 5100's in the back and a 1" lift shackle. Was perfectly happy with it.

    However I would be very hesitent to buy auto parts like that from Amazon. Buy from Wheelers or another vendor on this site, most offer some kind of member discount, too.
