    I have an opportunity to get a OR set (yellows) of front and rear shocks with springs and leafs. Will I get any additional hieght gains and what will the ride difference be between my stock limited suspension?

    I vote for no additional lift. Ride different will be better off road but not as tight for street. Could be wrong, but that’s what I’m expecting you will see.

    The standard OR Bilsteins will be a tad bit softer and you’ll get no lift. You’ll get more body roll when cornering

    I really doubt there is any benefit to that swap. If you’re bothering to change shocks you might as well go aftermarket. What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

    Hieght more than anything. I also see alot of these for sale and folks buying them so wondered why they would be swapping. Thanks for all the input!

    If you get them cheap, you could run a 3/8 inch thick spacer on top of them to get your truck level. It’ll ride softer too.
    Personally, I’d rather get Bilstein 5100’s if I’m going to buy something, but if you get the OR shocks for less than $100 I’d say it’s worth it.
