Hey guys, I've been working on replacing my oem shocks with some bilstein 5100s. I bought them from rock auto, this model, http://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=6321255&cc=1431156&jnid=435&jpid=74

My question is, how do I adjust the height and where do I want to set it for a good level stance? Also, I am running ford keys and shock extenders currently, do I leave the shock extenders off if I adjust the 5100's correctly? If I put them back on should I replace them entirely?

Vehicle info: 2005 z71 Tahoe. Ford keys and spacers. Thanks for any help!

You don't have coilovers so there is no adjustment on the shocks. If you got rid of your torsion bars and converted to coilovers then you could adjust it at the shock.
