id have to agree w/patman. I had the 5100's put on in the front, and idk if id be right or not, but you might look 5150's in the rear or i think they make 5100's for the rear that also give lift, dont hold me to it though.

you are correct, that does make sense now that I think about it. Not sure what I was thinking, I looked at the site and am still not sure where I got that from, maybe its rancho. . idk, ill put the shoe back in my mouth
