No one knows what shocks to get?
Probably Bilsteins...what length travel in the front with 2.5" lift and what valving?

Everyone is saying Cognito.....
No one just buys the shocks direct from bilstein or Fox?
Edit: Sorry.....dont mean to be rude...I just have been building custom trucks for some time and we usually take measurements....and order the shock/coilover based on the needed extended and collapsed length...and have them valved for the application

For the most part, people go with either Cognito or Fox for a cranked up H3.
Both of those choices seem to meet the needs of the masses and perform quite well.
(The Cognitos are specially modified Bilsteins, just for a leveled H3...or so I am told)
That's not to say there are not other options available. A few folks have approached the
question just like you are attempting to do....but most go back with the Cognotos or
the Fox units if cost is not a consideration.
I hope you share the fruits of your research with the rest of us.
Love to see what you come up with.
