Bilstein 5100 lowest setting
Bilstein 5100 lowest setting
Does anyone have pics of a 2009-2012 F150 (preferably SCREW) of bilsteins set at the 0.75" setting? I've been digging around for a few days and can't find any on here or through google.
I am not looking to get "level" so I don't want this to turn into a "why not just level it" thread.
Thanks in advance.

I could do that! Just not the same though. Figured anyone who had it done probably had a larger tire too. I'm looking at a 265/70/18, about 32.6" tire. Possibly the new Toyo AT2. I want to stay away from the LT's as I don't require them and don't want to sacrifice ride/braking/fuel economy. I only have 3.55's so don't want to sap my performance either. A bit of an odd ball combo but for my needs and wants it's a wise choice.
I put the 5100's on mine, all the way around. With 2" lift setting up front. Have the heavy Warn Transformer II winch setup on mine with about 400Lbs. Truck runs fairly level loaded about 1000lbs evenly. I think you will like a little higher setting while you are doing it. A 1 1/2" notch. It drives great with the Bilsteins. It takes about 5 hours with break and clean up time. Mine would touch the uneven drive-ins until I lifted it. When U drive it U won't have to change it right away. I also noticed an increase in gas mileage of a couple tenths. Don't figure, but maybe the tailgate was catching some air with the nose pulled down from the weight. Truck is pictured with the Bilsteins installed.
