Nice X! Look like you've already taken the step rails off. Next step go for a set of shackles and a tortion bar crank for a little lift! =)

New shocks won't provide you with lift. They do allow for more play when you do get a lift. Just do a search for 2nd gens that have lifts. Nice X though, I think you're going to have fun and a nice ride.

i was told that you can adjust the 5100s to a 2 inch lift

You were told wrong.. lol. the 5100s just give you more downward travel for when you have a suspension lift.. shocks alone don't have the ability to raise your truck

actually, your incorrect shaun

for the 2nd gens, they make 5100 lift coilovers that can get upwards of 2 inches of lift
