Call them and let them know what you have. I ran into the same situation. They should be able to work with you for what you need.

As for my set-up, I'm currently using Bilstein 5100's in front, part #BE5-6526-H5 and in the rear they are Bilstein 5150 part #BF5-A198-H1. I still think that the front shocks may be too short, so I may swap 'em out for 5150's as well, part #BF5-A196-H1.

With the suspension now a days, ride quality can be greatly improved. Mine rides like crap because I have MT Claws and 5" blocks in the back..but with better shocks, leaf springs to replace blocks, and anot so aggresive tire..my truck would ride ALOT better! Just got to know what ou need.

BTW, I have a 1999 2WD with the 7.5" Fabtech kit..so I'm real close to ya.
