Bilsteins inventory?

I am looking for a set of the front leveling Bilstein shocks for my 06 F150, but no one seems to have them in stock and they are on back order. Anyone know of a place that has them in stock?

Every place I've checked both locally and on the 'net have the same story: mid to late July. I'm a 4x2, so if you're a 4x4 there might be some somewhere. Wouldn't bet on it though... these things fly out the door and Bilstein apparently can't keep up with demand.

Hopefully someone here knows of a supplier that might have them, but I haven't had any luck... so I've just resigned myself to waiting.

I just got mine put on today. I just wanted to rub it in. It did take over a month to get them in though.

Did you just get them or just installed them? Where did you buy them?

I ordered them from shockwarehouse.com on may 2nd and didn't get them until about june 17th. I just had them installed. I believe it was worth the wait, I like them so far.

shockwarehouse.com is getting a backordered pallet in from Bilstein tomorrow (fri). I just called, found this out and ordered a set for my 04 4x4.

There's even a code on here "f150" for 5% off, or you can ask for a price match which I did and used topguncustomz and they matched them and got a sweet deal to boot. There suppose to ship tomorrow, i was told I would have them by wed.

I just placed an order from TopGunCustomz and they said they were sold out of the fronts but they were getting a new shipment early next week so I went ahead and placed my order for fronts and backs for a price that was UNBEATABLE by anyone else.

hmm i guess it's who you talk to at topgunz.. I spoke to Kris on tues and she said mid July but most likely 3rd or last week.. Called SW and they just got them in and shipped mine my way yesterday.. Also.. i got them for that same UNBEATABLE price TG's had.

Is yours 4x2 or 4x4?

Let me back up a sec. I just reread my email from them prior to ordering and it said:

We just ran out of the fronts, but they are coming on our next stock order. If you want to do the deal after knowing there will be a slight delay in shipping, let us know.
So I mislead you in saying next week HOWEVER my order has it marked "shipped" so I could be right. SW ignored all 3 of my emails and the topgunz and I made was through the ebay "submit your offer" and we settled on a great price, way below SW marked website prices WITH their 5% off coupon. I still would have ordered from SW but with 3 emails ignored and 1 phone call sent to voice mail I went with the company who replied several times and picked the phone up when I called.

BTW mine is a 4x4.
