I have the bilsteins on my truck to get rid of the factory rake. Mine was pretty dern bad lol but I think it was well worth the money. They do ride a little rougher than some other struts but hey I knew that when I bought a truck!

A pickup is supposed to have rake. Why would you get rid of it.

People think it looks good for the 90% of the time they aren't towing or hauling.

Besides, you can just get airbags to make it level even under load.

Hmmm....looks over functionality. I see....

Thin it steers and handles better with the 2" bilstein lifts. 11 ta 12 F150 4X2. It takes some heavy tools to get to the next 1/2 inch ( 2.5" ) At 2" it stills has a little rear rake but not very noticeable. Mine is perty evenly loaded at 1000 LBS. most all the highway driving time usually. Drives and rides level and smooth. Wouldn't have it any other way.

I recently purchased a set of bilstein for my 2011 XLT. After you installed them did the front end line up all right. My son in law is a mechanic at a GM dealership and he said I might need to get new A arm bolts for the lower A arms.

I have a SCAB with a Warn winch Transformer grill gard asy so the front is weighted 400 lbs to start. Less weight you might need a squeek of adj? My regimine is to keep the tires properly inflated due to the constant 1000Lb loading. It is so easy to drop 4/6 psi with seasonal changes. It now has the drive and feel of a truck without the harsh ride. It is a better truck for it and its fanny isn't stuck way up in the air.
