Product Reviews:

Great improvement in ride quality and leveling

Bilstien Adjustable Ride Height Shocks in my opinion are the best way to level your truck as well as improve the ride quality. These shocks not only level out your truck but really improve the ride quality. I would recommend taking your truck to an alignment shop as I did to have these installed its well worth the $200 it cost.

Improved ride quality, worth the price/effort

Great product, especially for the price. Replaced my 2013 Crew Cab 4x4 OEM struts with these. Put them on the 2nd from the top setting, raised the front from 37.5"" to 39.25"" (ground to lip of fender). Back went from 39.5"" to 39.75"" so it left a slight rake.Installation was fairly simple, doesn't require an engineering degree but it takes some time/effort. Took me about 6 hours to do both but I was also replacing both UCA's so that added a little time.Ride has definitely firmed up, doesn't nose dive when braking hard or roll as much on turns. Very much worth the price/effort.

Truck suspension upgrade

I had a shop put these on and place them at highest setting and I also had them align my truck. Cost for the shop I had do it was $328 which consisted kf installing shocks, alignment, and a kit for left side to get it in spec. I can't really say the ride improved and that's mainly because I already had bilsteins in the front, but they were not the 5100's where you could adjust ride height so I changed. I gained approx1.75 inch lift in the front end of a 2011 f150 supercrew fx4 with a hidden winch mounted behind the front bumper (extra weight) and these definitely leveled my truck out and gave me room for my 35"" tires being installed soon with new wheels. I'm excited to be getting the tires and wheels on soon

Great Upgrade for My Ford F-150

Installed in my 2013 F-150 XLT - much better than the OEM shocks, which were destroyed by 55k miles. Bought them due to lots of reviews by other Ford owners that liked them- glad I did.

Improved Ride Quality on My F150

Installed on the highest setting first but didn't like the stiff ride. Changed them to stock setting and love them. My f150 rides better than it did when it was new.

Impressed with the leveling kit for my truck

Wanted to Level out my 2013 F-150 FX4. Did the trick. Set them at the 2.5"" lift height. Looks amazing. Now I can run 12x35"" tires on my truck. Just needed to trim the lower air dam corners a little so tires would not rub. Great product for the value. Also very nice ride on the road.
