Review on Bilstein 24-185523 Enhanced Shock Absorber by Zha Rivera

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Raised 4 " with valves for big tires, fits 97-03 F150. They are great.

A few years ago we bought a used 99 F-150 4" lift and so did all of it wrong parts fitted. The search for replacement shocks began. A short model year truck meant a tiny list of 4" replacement front shocks. I have these new B8 5100s on one side and the new 6x adjustments on the other, and the B8 is much quieter than anything I might run over on the road, both on the left and right side of the truck in comparison.The damping is optimally tuned for the extra weight of the off-road tire/rim.It cost much more trouble compressing it and transporting it to the truck the bilstein side of the truck still has the fender movement mount (it's moved to the other side) I'm se Glad to know the truck doesn't have to be the 'Ratchet and Clank' nickname forever as I will be ordering full front and rear 5100 matching replacement parts.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • sad packaging
