Bilstien shock question

Thought I had asked this before but looked back and apparently didnt. Anyhoo..

These Bilstein shocks say.. Bilstein Preload Leveling unit. This part allows 0 to 2- inches of suspension lift.

Problem is I'm having a hard time finding/getting an answer on the adjustable bit. It says 0-2 inches. Does the mean ANYWHERE in between? At certain intervals like 0" -.5" - 1" - 1.5" - 2" ? Can these be set at 1.5"?

Thanks!
Rob

Dude, sincerely not trying to be rude but you've been around long enough to know how to use the search function. This very subject and these shocks have bee beat up and discussed ad nauseum in here. They level the truck either 0", 1", or 2". No 1/2" incriments.

It isn't a threaded shock body like a coilover is, just a tabbed setup.

And I have them cheaper than that, too!

One member had them grinded with new rings to make it 1.5" and it worked for him.
