    Hey all, im looking into buying the unit shown below but i'm a bit confused... so will this rear shock be adjustable up to 1" of rear lift or does this instantly give me a 1" rear lift and non adjustable? im looking to pair this with either 5100 upfronts with stock springs or go with 6112. thanks for your thoughts

    Shocks provide no real lift on their own. They dampen suspension movement. If your truck is stock, these will work for you. If you lift the rear up to one inch over stock, these will still work for you. Slightly longer travel than the factory shocks.
