Awesome Suspension Performance and Front Leveling

Leveling your truck and getting a smooth factory ride don't always go hand-in-hand. Many aftermarket leveling kits reuse your stock suspension hardware which leaves you with a factory ride and suspension performance at best, if not worse. Bilstein, one of the biggest names in performance suspensions, cuts out the middle man with this 5100 shock kit that includes high-quality adjustable front shocks. These shocks allow you to set your 2015-2020 F150's front ride height to stock, +.79", +1.26", +1.75", or +2.10" of leveling by using their adjustable spring seat tabs. The adjustable design is paired up with legendary Bilstein quality and performance that let you take these dampers anywhere for any application you have in mind without fear.

Steel-Cased Monotube Shocks with Unique Piston

Each of these shock absorbers feature an ultra-strong steel body with a zinc plated finish that protects against corrosion. The shocks all feature a monotube gas-charged interior design with a digressive piston and self-adjusting deflective valving which allows each shock to work at varying ride heights and give your truck improved articulation in off-road application. All four shocks feature a large 46mm diameter that gives them a huge oil volume for less fade during heavy and sustained articulation off-road. This complete kit is a direct bolt-on replacement for your factory shocks and can be used with your factory front coil springs and rear leaf springs.

Fitment: this kit will only fit trucks with RWD. A version of this kit for F150s with 4WD is also available.

Kit Returns: unfortunately, we will no longer be accepting partial returns of this package except in cases of damaged or defective parts. Please be aware of the installation requirements of this kit and plan accordingly. Please give us a call directly at 623-434-5277 if you need more information.

I had these shocks on my 2010 RWD F150 and just put them on my 2018 RWD F150. New truck had less than 500 miles on it before I made the switch. That's how much I like these shocks. Leveled the front as well. Fast shipping by Stage 3.

These fit excellent and install was just as easy as any other shock/strut install. Installed all four within a Saturday morning. You will definitely need spring compressors (available for rent from your local parts shop), I would also recommend but not necessary an impact gun, impact ratchet and ratcheting wrenches.

This is one of the best upgrades that I made to my truck! It should have come from the factory like this. I set it on the 1.75 setting which was perfect. I have just a slight hair of rake, which is what I wanted(can't tell without a tape measure though). It rides perfect and feels like the truck is more planted to the ground. The angles of the tie rods and ball joints didn't change much at all, which was the main thing that I was worried about. You have to get an alignment though because it pushes your toe in some. Its perfect now though!

Absolutely a must for these f150 makes the ride nice and firm install was a breeze the only thing the bolts the send with them are weak I was snugging them up and snapped 2 of the bolts wasn't crazy tight or anything yet I'd recommend upgrading them to grade 8 bolts

2015 Ford F-150

Great Package, Installed them on a 2015 Ford F-150 Platinum and they leveled my truck beautifully like the truck was meant to be leveled. I had them professionally installed took them about 2 hours to finish, had them do an alignment right afterwords and the truck drives really smooth like new again and I can tell the difference of the 2 inch height in the front. This was a great price for the whole set you can not beat 3 Motorsports on this package, thanks guys.

I had a shop install the fronts and do the alignment, rears I did myself. Rears were 25 minute install (removing stocks and installing bilstein) no jacks needed. Right off the bat, I didn’t feel a huge difference driving around town. I used my stock springs which have about 35k miles on them. But, it was night and day difference when it came to bumps, railroads, washboards, etc. The truck feels way more planted, and is very smooth over bumps. The front end also does not dive nearly as much when on the brakes. I haven’t done any trails yet, so I can’t speak on that aspect, but I have done quick little cuts through the desert by my house and I am very pleased. I have the fronts installed at the top setting. The truck does not sit perfectly level (which I am okay with, it is close enough).

Installed these recently with the full level setting in the front and the ride is great. The truck sits level and looks great. I wanted better quality then the leveling puck kits and these fit the bill perfectly. Highly recommend for those that don’t want to spend double on some of the others out there.

I bought these shocks to level my truck and very glad I did. Not only did it level the front with the back but the ride is 10x better than stock! Night and day difference. I had a local off-road shop install them and align it after and it looks amazing ! Great price and fast shipping along with excellent customer service! I would recommend these to anyone looking for a better ride and a level front. No more stinkbug!! All I need is some 33s and some nice off-road wheels and it’s done!

Excellent Kit! The Bilstein 5100 Leveling Kit is an incredible value. The highest setting (2.1") leveled my truck perfectly (as expected) but I was blown away by the improvement in handling. My truck was a big sloppy mess on the stock shocks... WAY too floaty! But the valving of these Bilsteins makes the truck feel more solid and predictable. Honestly, between the leveled stance and the improved handling, these trucks should come factory with these shocks. Fwiw, installation was simple and shipping from Stage 3 was fast.

2015 F-150 RWD 5.0

When I bought this truck I noticed it would rock side to side a lot more than my old 2003 F-150 when coming into or out of my driveway at an angle. I've always noticed the rear hop over bumps in a curve but recently I had the hop happen on a freeway at 65 MPH which kind of scared me. Not sure what would have happened if the pavement was wet. That got me looking for new shocks and these are just what I needed. The rear hop isn't gone completely but much much better and safer. The truck also doesn't rock side to side near as much anymore either. A local mechanic wanted almost $400 to install the front shocks so I did the install myself instead. It was my first time installing these kind of front shocks so the first one took me about 3 hrs and the second only 1.5 hrs. It's not really that hard to do. I do recommend ratcheting closed end wrenches (with a swivel head) for the 3 top nuts and on the ball joints.

2016 f150 XLT SUPER CAB

I drive an extended cab 6.5' bed 5.0 XLT on a very poorly maintained dirt road. Everytime I hit some washboard I could feel my rear end searching. It wouldn't try to pass, but it would "hunt". It felt a lot better if I turned traction control off. Since I put on the Bilsteins, I no longer have to turn off traction control and I have even better results. Truck is PLANTED. Fronts are set to max height and made it almost level. I think my my measurement was 1/2"-1" fwd rake, which was good because I hate seeing trucks looking like they're popping a wheelie. I added a stock 4x4 rear block to the rear and couldn't be happier. It's perfect.

Installation was an all day job to do at home on my garage, but it was well worth the effort. Body roll is gone, the front end is perfectly level now, and the handling is greatly improved. Surprisingly, I have not seen any drop in my fuel economy either. No regrets about this purchase.

Easy to install, great quality, they ride nice, lots and lots of bumps in my city, so they help a lot. I bought the 4x2 kit, unfortunately, and for unknown reasons, the front of the truck went down like 1 inch on the second snap ring position, when it says it will give you 1 up. so weird! What I mean is Iost one inch from original stock shock absorbers height. I will replace my tires soon, so I may end up in the 3rd. position snap ring to gain again the 1 I lost. Any ideas?

On a couple of other questions you reference using the 4wd kit on a 2wd truck to get a little more lift, however both show a max of 2.10". What is the difference and are the rear shocks longer in the 4wd kit too?

Asked by: Justin - 7/12/2017

The rated lift height on the strut assemblies is 2.10" over stock, and the 4WD F150s stand slightly taller than the RWD F150s from the factory. The 4WD F150s also come with a rear block in the rear, which necessitates a longer shock. Most RWD F150s do not come with a rear block from the factory.

On a couple of other questions you reference using the 4wd kit on a 2wd truck to get a little more lift, however both show a max of 2.10". What is the difference and are the rear shocks longer in the 4wd kit too?

What are the front and rear part numbers for the 2wd package? I have seen numerous packages that actually are 4wd part numbers.

Im looking at the install video and it shows they disconnect the actuator lines and replace them but don’t use a vacuum pump when putting back all the components. Does one not need the vacuum pump when install these shocks/struts for the front?

I was wondering if the front will work with my existing 2" spacers? Can I still adjust these two inches so I get a total of four inches. I have 2.5" blocks on the rear with stock shocks right now. I was wondering if the ones in this kit are stock length or longer

What tire size is recommended on the factory 20s? 2017 2wd stx f150

Will these ford my 2014 STX 2wd?

I have a 2015 f150 xlt crew cab RWD, with a 1' block in the rear, will this RWD kit work. Or do I need the 4WD version? I'm replacing a 2.25 level kit in the front but leaving the 1' rear block......thanks.

I see suggestions to use the 4WD version if seeking 2.5” of lift on a 2WD truck. This may be a silly question but ... are the 2WD and 4WD version interchangeable without other modifications?

Going for a street look with everyday drivability on some 22’s 10 wide. Will the 1.26” height setting work in conjunction with a 1” drop shackle in the rear for a leveled stance that isnt too high? *2016 F150 2wd

Will adding this kit to my 2015 2wd get me the same height as a factory 4wd? Also will it allow the front end to come level with the rear?

I have a 2016 f150 screw 2wd, I would like to know what setting on the front adjustable 5100s would come as close a poss to leveling the truck without going over? which of the settings for being level should I use for the 2wd with everything else being stock? Thanks

Will an alignment be required after installing the front shocks or can I get away with installing them myself without an alignment?

Are 1/4 inch wheel spacers required on this kit? Will it rub on stock tires or 33?

On my 2017 F150 crewcab I want to level it up 2.5 inch. Will this product do that? Of course I will also put the Bilstein on the rear.

Is a 295/70r18 possible with this kit on highest setting using stock wheels on a '16 rwd?

Is this kit compatible with the Eibach spring to give it the extra .7” of lift without any adverse effects?

will this kit void the warranty?

If I were trying to fit 275/60/20 fallen Wildpeak AT3 tires on the stock 20 inch wheels and a 2016 RWD could I get away with the 1.76 setting and no rub? Also, if I were to buy the 4wd kit and didn't buy a rear block would my rear end just sit unusually high?

The Bilstein site mentions the B8 5100 33-253237 rear shock is adjustable from 0-1" yet I can't find anything how to adjust this height. Is it really adjustable?

I have a 18 F150 Lariat Crew RWD, and I was looking at something that will level my truck while also being to fit some 33 on 20’s. I notice that this only goes up to 2.1, what do you recommend for a more leveled look of the 2.5?

Will this kit work on my single cab 2wd 2018 ?

i want to get the 2.25 front strut extension leveling kit to level my 2015 f150 . can i get the bilskin s100 adjustABLE leveling shock kit to level it at a dead stare for the remainging difference?? And if i do get this,will it add any height to the overall height of the truck

If I already have a 2.5” leveling kit will this still work?

If I already have a 2.5 level kit in the front will these still be able to work with the level kit?

Just ordered this kit recently, but am thinking about also putting a 1 - 1.5" block in the rear - hoping to get more of the 4WD stance. Will the 2WD kit be okay with a small rear block, or am I better off returning for the 4WD kit?

Will these rear shocks work with my 1.5 block in the rear?

You have referenced that a 4wd Kit will work on a 2wd/RWD model, my question is do I need a block spacer in the rear of my 2wd F150 to use the 4wd Kit? And if so what size block spacer? Thank you

If I already have a 2.5” level on the front, would it be better for me to get the 2wd set or go with the 4wd set just because of the height my front is?

I have a 2018 Crew Cab XLT and looking to upgrade my tires. If I wanted to keep the rake by adding a 1" block to the rear which version should I purchase, the 2WD or 4WD?

I have a 2018 F-150 rwd. I was wondering if the 4wd kit would still work on my truck or is it best to just stay with the rwd? I don’t want to assume and be wrong and buy the wrong kit. Thanks

So I have this kit on my 18 F-150. Can I add a 1.5” block to the rear? I’m not sure if that will be to much for the rear struts. Or would I need to upgrade my rear struts to the 4wd ones?

Will these work with a 6" rough country lift totaling 8 inches of overall lift?

I have a 2015 F150 RWD crew. I have the Ford Performance 1.5”/2.5” lowering kit. Will these dampers set at 0” lift work in my application. Factory 20” wheel and tires.

After reading that you can squeeze some extra height by using the 4wd version of this lift, would there be extra harsh CV angles or other issues or would it still be within a safe height? If so , to keep factory rake or close to factory rake what size block would be needed in the rear?

Would you recommend buying upper arms with this or will my angles still be fine?

Does this bilstein leveling kit fit the 2021 f150?
