Can I use my stock springs with these shocks?

Yes, the Bilstein B8 5100 (Ride Height Adjustable) shocks are designed to work with your vehicle's original front coil springs. The adjustable spring seat allows you to set the desired lift height using those factory springs.

How much lift can I expect with these shocks?

The adjustable spring seat has multiple grooves that allow for 0 to 2.75 inches of front lift, depending on the specific application and how you position the spring seat.

What makes the monotube design better?

The 46mm monotube design helps maintain consistent oil pressure and temperature, which leads to fade-free performance, especially during demanding driving conditions or over rough terrain.

Product Details

Bilstein is known for making well-built suspension components, and their B8 5100 (Ride Height Adjustable) front shock absorbers are a popular choice for trucks and SUVs with OE coilover setups. If you're looking to level out the stance of your 2009-2013 Ford F-150, these shocks are a practical way to do it without needing separate coil spring spacers.

These monotube shocks feature a 46mm digressive piston and a self-adjusting valve that helps improve handling and increase wheel travel. The key feature here is the adjustable spring seat, which has multiple snap-ring grooves. This allows you to set the front lift anywhere from 0 to 2.75 inches, depending on your specific F-150 application, using your factory springs. It's a straightforward way to get a more even look for your truck.

When installing these, you'll be using your truck's original springs. The adjustable spring seat lets you dial in the ride height you want, giving you a more level appearance and improved performance over rough terrain.
