Will these shocks make my truck sit goofy?

I have not a lot of experience with suspension and need some advice. So I bought this truck awhile back and was told it has a 4” lift. Upon inspection I see bilstein 5100s (rear ones need replacing) and 33x12.5x20 tires with a negative 44 offset on my wheels. I ordered fox rear shocks that are supposed to be a 4-6” lift. Is that a adjustable thing or no? Will it make my truck look silly for only putting them on the rear? Fox-985-24-196 is the part number. Can anyone give me some direction or advice? Maybe there’s a forum for this already that I haven’t found?

 

No the shock will not change your right height. That is set by the leafs in the rear and the coils in the front.

 

The rear fox shocks say 4-6" meaning that they will support a 4-6" lift in the rear without bottoming out or blowing out. Rear shocks have nothing to do with lift. As stated above, rear lift will come from primarily your leaf springs. A little more lift can be achieved by adding bigger shackles but not much.

 

Awesome thank you!

 

Your front end is lifted with a drop bracket kit, think it says Procomp on it if I'm seeing it right.

The shocks don't lift the rear, you lift the rear via the leaf springs (best way to do it) or via the shackles or with blocks (worst/cheapest way to do it)

But yes you do want to make sure you get the right length shocks for the amount of lift you have so you don't damage them

 

How do I know if I got the right length lmao?

 

Well to me it looks more like you have a 6" lift going on lol but I'm not all that familiar with 2nd gens. Those Fox shocks you ordered for 4 - 6" should work fine for the rear though

 

Alright thank you so much. My brother is going to help me with them but he just told me to order the parts lmao I’ve never touched any suspension so I don’t know a whole lot about it and have been reading these forums learning a bit. I just don’t want to go to put these on and have it not work out for me

 

Let us know how it goes!

 

Well, today I wrecked my from end so that will be postponed until further notice but I will keep you posted

 

Oh damn...that sucks, hope you're okay

 

Yea everyone is fine just some sad bumpers
