Bilstein 24-316415 BIL B8 Series Shocks for the rear. Bought two. Each one comes with one shock and one kit to lift that wheel end. I installed installed only the shocks. 2024 Badlands.

Doesn’t that look weird lifting only the back? Or did you already have a leveling kit installed?

I know they can be bought separately, can they be installed in only rear or only front? I ask because if it's providing a 1.25" lift in the rear wouldn't the tilt be more pronounced?
I wouldn't install just front or rear. I'm tempted to put them on my Sasquatch.

The rear shocks come with spring spacers so they dont lift on their own. The front struts are built longer.
ah, thanks. well I won't be installing them for a while it seems.

Looks just like mine. I did it myself.

For the bottom: Spacer goes on the control arm. Lower strut isolator goes into spacer. Spring goes into isolator.

For the top: Trailing arm spacer goes in between body and trailing arm. Upper isolator is left untouched. Spring goes into isolator.

The Sasquatch might not benefit from these, it already has probably even better suspension with more actual travel, although the ride height is different. Someone installed a spacer kit on another thread, that might be the way to go.

Yeah, in my case, the travel with the B8 Terrasport is shorter than with the OEM shocks, but it provides better driving on off-road roads. For the sasquatch.. did you take a look to flatout suspension ? , could be those compatible with sasquatch ...
