My factory 2011 fx4 shocks sucked. These are awesome

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2015

My factory 2011 fx4 shocks sucked. These are awesome. I was worried about firmer ride because people complain about them over rough county shocks in the forums. If these are mounted with TKO tires then the ride is firm. I have them w the new wrangler adventure Kevlar tires and it is a perfect ride. To to soft and not to firm. A truck is not a luxury car, I don't want a soft ride. What I want is something that soaks up the off roading and let's me know where my tires are. These are them. Holds the weight of my truck well and reduces body squat, lean, and roll. It is important to note I have pulled heavy loads and carries heavy loads on these as well. They were awesome. So I say F@$& rough country and soft truck shocks, I'll take these bilsteins any day.

Installed on 2013 F150 Ecoboost supercrew on bed at highest setting and it leveled the truck perfectly. I installed a set of 295/70R18s Nitto Terragrapplers on the the stock wheels and everthing clears. The ride is basically the same on smooth pavement. Body roll has been reduced while cornering. In the cornfields, the ride is noticably stiffer but bearable. Rebound seems just a touch slow but would absolutely buy again

2010 F150 FX4 Front W/1 inch (Second Notch)- Leved!

Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2014

Verified Purchase

Purchased a set and debated what notch to put that lock-ring into! After researching the F150 Forum and a call to Bilstein, I went with the second notch because it's really a 1.25 lift! BAM! That setting leveled my truck. (MY TRUCK-43,K w/20"OEM Wheels & 33X10.50 BFG ATs) Now 1200 miles later, they are great on ride and handling!

Heads-up! I waited three weeks before resetting the toe on an alignment, this gave time to "settle" and to eliminate the bounce.
Based on other folks "Real World" results-That 3rd notch up puts the front up around 1.75, a tad high and the rear squats without raising the rear an inch too!

I thought these would stiffen up my f150, but I do not feel much of a difference in the ride or handling. Nice quality, but only if you really need new shocks.

Best addition to my truck!

Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2013

Verified Purchase

I am very pleased with the purchase of these leveling shocks. I had my local shop install them at the highest lift (about 2.5") on my 2009 F150 4x4 and it looks much better and allowed me to put on some raptor wheels at 315/70R17. The level is just right, the rear end sits up just a little bit without any blocks or springs. I did go with similar shocks on the rear (different part number) but this is not necessary. The ride is as good or better than my stock shocks with 67,000 miles on them.

Rides Better!

Reviewed in the United States on August 21, 2016

Added the Bilstein 5100 front shocks today. Set them to 1.5 inch lift setting. Truck ride is smooth but firm and it got rid of the wheel dribble experienced when hitting small bumps....Much better ride in MHO. I tried 2 different spring compressors from Harbor Freight but couldn't get either one to compress them enough. Had to have a shop with a heavy duty spring compressor put the shocks in for me.
