I'm in the process of ordering shocks. I'm looking at bilsteins:
Front 24-185943
Rear 33-066868.
They're said to be for 5-6" lift... What are the risks of running a longer shock? I have a 4" skyjacker lift with 1.5" pucks in the front as well.
From bilsteins site, there isn't much but yellow ugly shocks for a 4".

if you run a longer shock, when installed they will be compressed, and may bottom out when hitting a bump.
Here is lengths from bilsteins catalog. If I have 4" in the front with 1.5" pucks, I should be fine with the larger shock. And give me almost 4" more travel. (In the front)
