BJ spacers and new bilsteins

I'm going to put some ball joint spacers on my truck and put new shocks on all four corners soon. All my shocks are blown, so I'm going to order bilsteins. I am also going to put 63" Chevy springs on the rear.

Which shocks should I order, the HD's Or 5100's

I guess I should clarify, I'm going to order bilsteins. I just need to know if the HD's will be long enough or will I need to order the 5100's.

If i remember correct, this has been discussed, you might try searching. Bilstein doesn't list their shock lengths anywhere as far as I know. It's their little secret.

I have searched and read lot of threads but I couldn't find the answer. People have said they new shocks if they had stock ones but I haven't found which bilstiens work yet.
