Dumb question, did I get the right 5100's?

[AfroWookie]

I was talking with a friend of a friend the other day and he was saying that there are a couple different models of 5100's for the rear of our trucks and it got me wondering if I have the correct ones. Here are the ones I have, only 1 pair is adjustable, which is the front. I'm not home right now to give part numbers, but I can look when I get home if need be

they both look correct, do you have part numbers?

There is only 2 part numbers for the 4th gen 5100's, one front and one rear. The fronts are adjustable, the rear are not (since the rear is not a coil-over design, there is no way for the shocks to provide lift). As long as you ordered for a 4th gen, you should have the right parts.

Side note.....Bilstein did change the part numbers a few years ago, but everything I've seen recently is the newer part numbers. It was still the same shock, just a different part number.

Did you order from Down South Motorsports? Those are identical to the ones they sent me a few weeks ago. They are the same as all other 5100's for the 4th gen but they are labeled with an RCD sticker. Something to do with a backorder from Bilstein on the regular ones is what I was told by someone at DSM.

Same shocks, just different sticker

Awesome, thanks!
