7100 front and rear with the 360/80 (default) valving. No issues.

I agree the fox's are a great deal and after talking with Lars I plan to give them a try. Lars was previously running the Bilstein 7100's and went to the Fox's and seems to feel that they were a great improvement. Send him a PM and ask him to chime in.;)

If you have stock mounts than 10" is about all you can fit with a 3.5" lift. If you have aftermarket mounts you should take some measurement first.
