To all of you who I have spoken with privately about shocks, sorry for this post.

The Question: Would someone assist me by throwing a link in here for what I'm looking for? I understand that I want the 5100's for 3" of lift and I also understand that I'm looking for shocks with approximately 14-16" compressed and 26-28" extended..but this website doesn't seem to show specs, so, I don't know what I'm supposed to be looking for. I'm wanting to do the same old 5100's all the way around, just like everyone does.

Specifics: I have 22% off from AutoAnything.com so with that being said, I would like to order x4 shocks (front and rear) for my 2002 X. Could someone please supply a link of the shocks I need from this website? I want to be certain I get the right shocks.

Thanks.

To clarify:

If you have a 2000 - 2004 X, and, you are ONLY discussing the REAR SHOCKS:

As long as they compress to 16" OR SHORTER....and extend to 26" OR LONGER, the compressed/extended lengths will work.

You also want them valved at 255/70.


The FRONT shock dimensions and valving ARE NOT THE SAME AS THE REARS.

For the FRONT, you want them to be compressible to 9" OR SHORTER, and extendable to 13" OR LONGER...and valved at 360/80.

Rears

Fronts



I don't know if Autoanything.com carries these or not, but, they do have a "Live Chat" option for example, and, you can ask them if they have these shocks....with the above specs.

If they don't, but they have the same dimensions and valving in a Bil 4600 or HD shock, those will work too...and work ~ the same as the 5100's.



We have a sponsor here who gives us a discount too:

Hey X freaks.

2. I will be sending out the black Friday email announcement either tomorrow or Tuesday. I can only send the email to those on the email list. How do you get on the email list you ask.. Simple. Go to xterraperformanceparts.com and register.. That's it
Also.. Be advised your info is safe and I don't share it with anybody. I only send out emails when I have sales going on and when I have new products so don't be scared of mass spam from me... Promise!
OK that is all... Recommence Xterra madness!

After calling and speaking with a manager over a 4x4parts about price matching, he said it was all clear and when he went to clear it with billing, they vetoed the price match..So now, I found the 5100's in a set at 4wheelparts.com. When plugging in my vehicle, it says it fits..So, based off of the link provided, is this what I'm looking for? This is getting to be embarrassing..

Its impossible to tell, its just a generic pic of 4 shocks, two of which have the wrong ends to fit an X...so, I'd say no, and no about the specs, as there are none to compare.
