Shocks For Rize!!!!

So just got dropped the truck off for regearing. Starting to think how much money is going into my truck and its getting a little crazy. Anyways heres the question, I want and need new front shocks bad, something i can crank.
The thing is Kings are 1600... Thats kind outragous. was wondering if there was anyother company that makes custom shocks like Fox for bilstien just dont want a spacer. Help Please

But he doesn't want the spacer. However, I think this is your best option if you don't want to be spending another $1600 on Kings.

The Kings take the place of the strut extender if I'm thinking of the right thing. They wouldn't be 1600 bucks if they just bolted up to the spacer

I guess you could use the Kings for the stock but you'd have to use the strut extender. I think they're about $1300. So for another $300 you could have the ones that replace the strut extender. The Bilsteins are $300 for the pair.

No i ment the bilstens. I know all about king, the ones made for the rize are 1600. im on ebay right now trying to find a good price on a Coil spacer cause the kings might be christmas if i cant find anything, dose anyother company make a shock for rize or would for a cheaper price then Kid.

Man, you've got me confused too.

Bilsteins 5100s do bolt up to the strut extender. They also can be cranked for 2" of lift. Once again, they're $300.

Want a shock that dosent use the rize spacer, i know king makes shock with out them but there the only ones, is there anyother companys. if king is the only one then i have to wait untill christmans or so till i get enough cash. I just want a improvment now.

If there isent anyone beside king then i just wanted to know the price diffrence from the bilstins and a Coil spacer. ebay had coil spacers for 70 bucks.

I never said they were good! I would only go with Kings in this situation if it were me. Wish I had some money, but this **** job don't pay.

What about the BDS / bilstein 4-6" lift front struts? Add a leveling kit to this and it would give you your 8. That is what I am saving up for.

They will sell the fronts seperately if you call them

you could always do a 2inch AS on top of like a Fabtech or sway a way coilover of 6 inch lifts

I could have the guy that made my extended lenght donahoes convert some sway a ways to work for a 8 inch lift. probably wouldnt be more then 1200
