Review on 🚗 Bilstein 24-186704 B8 5100 Shock Absorber: Enhanced Performance for Off-Road & Urban Settings by Ryan Koser

I bought this Bilstein 5100 for my 2004 Ford F-150 Lariat SuperCrew RWD. The original shocks and struts were 150,000 miles long. rear in 15 minutes with a Bilstein 5100, and in the rear a big difference was noticeable when overcoming deep drops and bumps in the road at high speeds. No more bouncing like a ball or trampoline effect. I also replaced the front shock absorber and strut assembly on both sides with high performance Ford Motorcraft preloaded shock absorbers. Oh my god now a brand new truck, handles like a cotton pad, big improvements on bumps, corners and corners, braking and stopping times. No more diving into sharp turns, no more sideways leaning when the truck tries to corner at over 40 km/h. No more awkward road noise, my truck's height is back to the original height, it's much higher than before replacing the old one. My truck is like a dream now. needed in the future. The front struts and Bilstein springs are too stiff, you can feel the road too much. The front OEM shock absorbers are just perfect and match the Bilstein 5100 rear well. The old ones wouldn't open/expand at all and were mostly dead. I just want to ride more and can't wait for the hunting season to get some dirt road experience with these new shocks. Be sure to balance and wheel align to ensure everything is secured in the drivetrain to get the most out of the new suspensions. I highly recommend the Bilstein struts, especially for the rear. You can't go wrong with the best German technology!
