I've done a little research on these shocks and you can find a few more answers on some other threads.....just search "5100" or "Bilstien". You can leave the truck at stock height in the front if you put the snap ring at "0"....then you can set it for a 1" lift or a 2" lift. If you notice in the pictures, there are two grooves below the location that he has his set at...those would be the "0" and 1" grooves. The best price I found a few months back was at shockwarehouse.com...It was about $399 for a set of 4. I've heard it's a pain itn the $#s to compress the front coils though. Supposedly you don't have to get an alignment afterwards.

I was going to get a set for my 06' XE but I just traded it for a 08.5' SE so I'm going to wait awhile.
