Default Bilstein 5100's with lift kit.
Any thoughts or better benefits of using the 5100's instead of the lift manufacture's shocks?

Rancho not possible
Fab tech ya. If you get a lift that uses strut spacers it's possible. If you get one that replaces the oem strut and retains the factory spring then no
