The fronts have a notch for 4" and 6" lift. The rears are 6". Not sure if they have a 4" rear shock??? Bilstein makes them for RCD Suspension so there is limited dealers where you can get them. I heard Fabtech also carries them but I haven't confirmed this.

front # F4-BE5-B316-T1
rear # F4-BE5-B317-T0

I would call them and make sure they have them in stock and that they can ship them when you place your order. I waited months for mine. They have not updated the part number for the struts. The number I posted earlier is the correct number. I confirmed it with RCD.
