Another shock lift question

Have an 03 V8 Limited. It has the block type lift on it....like on top of the springs. I need to get new shocks, and was planning on the Bilsteins. From what I've read they only lift the front and not the back. Is this correct? I'd def like to get a little lift in front and back with new shocks....what are my options?

The Bilstein 5100 are adjustable front only, not rear. You can get extra lift in the front without using spacers. In the rear, however, you will need to add spacers or go with new (taller) springs.

If you look in the 4th gen section there are lots of good discussions/threads on this.

If you have the $ I would go with new springs that give you the lift you want.

Personally I am going to put all OME (Old Man Emu) springs and shocks/struts in my 08 V6 Sport and rip out the stupid XREAS.

However Bilsteins are great I hear and lots of other solid options. Just depends how much $ you have to spend and what look/ride you want to achieve.
 
Thanks yeah there's already spacers in front and back so it's pretty level, which is where I'd like to keep it. Just trying to figure out a way to add shocks that would get a lil more lift altogether. Guess it's not possible without changing springs too.
