Got the Bilstein 5100's on the way!

I just had to share! I purchased the Bilstein 5100's with the ride height adjustable fronts for a 2.5" preload lift! I got them from 4 wheel parts, front set and rear set for $389. They should be showing up on Tuesday, I'll let you all know how they are!

Right on......

I'm getting the 5100's for my F150 too..... If I ever get my dang F150 ! 5 weeks and counting....

Anyway, that doesn't sound like a bad price at all ! I had expected to pay $300 for just the fronts... But for less than $100 more, what the heck.

Anxious to hear how these are working out for you... Oh, and also, how easily those install.

Peace,
Fish

I'll keep you up to date. 4 Wheel Parts was having the 10% off deal going and the guy hooked me up with a buy 3 get 1 free deal, which was suppose to be for the ProComp stuff only. Originally I ordered the ProComp MX6's for the front and rear and got the buy 3 get 1 free deal, then they called me the next day and told me that ProComp doesn't make the MX6's for the front. So, he offered me the Bilstein for the same buy 3 get 1 free deal, so I took it!

Unless they changed them, they are only good for 2" of lift. I loved them on my truck, even with 37s, they were a great shock for the money.

2" is the max lift. And there $50 each cheaper than the Rancho's for the fronts.

I put the rears on yesterday and the truck already drives better. The rear doesn't hop around as much, I can't wait to get the fronts on next week.
