Yes, this is the correct kit for your truck. If your current front shocks are in good working condition there is no need to replace them. Adding 2.5" is still within the working range of most stock length shocks. However, if your shocks are worn or if you do much off-road driving, you may want to consider upgrading to a longer shock. Most shock manufacturer's offer a shock that is 2-3" longer to accommodate leveling kits. Since the installation of the leveling kit is the same as the installation of new shocks, it may be a good time to do it. We recommend the Bilstein 5100 series shocks. They are a good high-quality shock that works well with the leveling kit. Installing this leveling kit to the front of your truck will have no affect on the rear suspension. Please let us know if you have any further questions. Toll-free 1-877-731-7911.

I'm assuming you want the shocks for the front because you said you're putting the plow on this is what I did in the past go to o'reilly's website look up shocks for your vehicle click on the cheap Monroes there they will tell you how long there and the bolt hole size and then from there you can start looking for other vehicles that have the same style that you can buy air shocks for for instance we have a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee they don't make your shocks for that so I found out 2000 Dodge Ram 3 quarter ton 4 by 4 has the same fittings I was able to buy those and they work awesomethe shop that you were referring to I believe fit on the older chevy tell 1987 . I believe the front shocks on a Chevy of your age has a stud on top and a bolt hole on the bottom if so look up a mid 1980s ford e250 rear shocks they should be the same as your front .

Yes, they will work on a stock suspension. I have them on my Hummer and 2500HD. Both have 35-12.5's and I feel these are a must with the heavier tires. Great product.

This shock is for a stock truck so my guess is probably not. Get a hold of Bilstein directly to get a correct answer for your application.

Front shocks - also make sure you order the right shocks for the amount of lift you have... if you have stock vehicle these are your shocks, if you have a 2-inch lift, etc you'll need another shock..

I installed my air lift system in a 2010 dodge 1500. It does not have shocks in the rear so I did not have to deal with that problem. Sorry I could not help.

It comes with the parts you normally need. Mine had been raised so I had to get some longer u-bolts. If you get the one designed for your truck, and your rear suspension is original, it should be all you need. Instructions are clear if you have some mechanical ability.

yes it can, how ever you will not need it, these shocks leveled off my truck, how ever I used my spacer, had to install a 2" sway bar riser, then used 3" blocks in the back for a nice level raise, had to change rear shocks and install a carrier bearing lowering bracket to take pressure off the drive shaft. 33 nitto terra on now had to loose front mud flaps tmmshocker@yahoo.com

I'm not sure because I own a 2005 dodge 2500 diesel straight front axle with coil springs does your truck have coil springs

No. The stock shocks have the travel. So after market shocks will be the same. As long as you have no lift kit installed.

It should fit Doug.....it fits my 09 2500 with diesel 4x4....I assume shocks would be the same on both.

This shock will not actually lift your truck but it will accommodate a 2.5 inch lift if you go that route. The front coil over type Bilstein's are adjustable and work fantastic, they will provide anywhere from stock height to 2.5 inches of lift. I hope this has answered your question.

These are rear shocks (for a Ram 1500). Use stock #911186 for front shocks.

I have a 2004 GMC 1500 Z71 that is 4x4 and I have these shocks on my truck. I ordered the same shocks for my companies work truck which is almost identical to yours.

No I have had these shocks on my car for about a month height is about the same. Unless you car has been lowered or the springs are very worn. You car will return to it stock height.
