Nope, just not at my desk. Was out building Coilovers. We have lots of options for the op. Boss, Bilstein, Fox, Icon, Pro Comp. Just depends what you want!

I also need some replacement rear shocks for my fx2, which do you recommend? My truck is not lifted, it is lowered a bit.

often overlooked on this site are the Bilstein HD's (yellows).. i absolutely love them.
they will not lift the front and they should last you the life of the truck.

X2 on that I had them on my 09 for years and they never failed me. Night and day difference between them and stock shocks. Plus they are half the price of 5100s.

ResQlab has it right on the money. if you need better replacements that do not include height changes the yellow bilstein HDs are perfect. I changed to them on on a previous vehicle and they are amazing for what they do.
I'll be the first one to push the BOSS coilovers from Alex.... but in the instance of both lowering and no lift applications the yellows are going to be much cheaper and a better option..... unless one can order the BOSS shocks (front and rear) without the coilover setup....

I've got a set of Rancho RS7000MT's on the back of mine and they do handle nice - replaced the worn out OEMs'. They also have a lifetime warranty.
Waiting to get the nerve to tackle the fronts. Maybe over the winter...
