Bilstein 5100 install Q's
 
The FedEx guy just dropped off my new Bilstein 5100 kit shocks and struts. ON the box of the rear shocks it says 2" lift the box for the front struts says 0-2" lift

Bilstein's website says the rears have 0-1" of lift.

For anyone that hass these installed: do these shocks actually lift the rear at all? I am going for the leved look so if they lilft the rear at all I may need a small spacer kit.

I have a 2007 FX4 with about 64,000 miles Wheels and tires are still stock size. When I have measured before the front is exactly 2 inches lower than the rear if that makes a difference.

Thanks

If not mistaken they are for trucks with up to 2inches of lift in the rear. The shocks itself wont give you the lift. Only the front ones will

Excellent, that's the answer I was hoping for

Thanks

P.S. I did use the search button but could not find anything on here or google
