It should, we have the same suspension lift I'm assuming.

Then yea, none of that other stuff is going to change the shocks that came with the lift. I bet we were using the same exact shocks. The Bilsteins should fit on your truck fine.

built my own upper ball joint spacers and did the upper ball joint flip. I gotta tell you what a difference. Upper arms and cvs are on very nice angles now and with the arms back up i now have some suspension travel and piles of room for alignment adjustment.

Agreed, I'd like to see that!

I installed a set on a Toyota of mine YEARS ago along with some tubular upper control arms. I didn't really do it for the lift, I did it so I could loosen the torsion bars up a little and gain some articulation from the IFS






Worked fairly well, about 10" of travel. The stock CV's were my limiting factor...
