Good morning guys,

I know there is a leveling kit thread on here but I just needed some insight from you beautiful bastards. I originally wanted to go with the Bilstein 5100s for my 2020 F150 4WD XLT but after some lovely research, I can't find it for sale. With this being said, I was looking into the BDS 2.5" leveling kit so I can slap some 33 or 34" tires on with a nice stance (nothing insane and I don't need the UCA bending into gumby). If anyone has used the BDS or has another recommendation I'd love to hear it. Thanks!

 

I used the Autospring 2" spacers on my former 2018 F150 and have the Bilstein 5100's on my current 2020 and I don't think I would ever use the spacer again. The Bilsteins can level the truck up to 2.1" but they also provide a far superior ride than the stock parts and I think they are well worth the wait.

 

How long ago did you purchase them and from where if you remember?

 

This seems to happen every year around this time. Bilsteins disappear at the beginning f the year, and come back late March, early April.

 

Just lovely 😂 right as I’m aiming to grab some new shoes they’re out of stock from everywhere. But the only spot I’m finding them is Stage3Motorsports for the entire shock kit, you for anywhere else to look at?

 

Got them from Stage 3 about a year ago.

 

You are about the 4th person here looking for the Bilstein shocks.

If you decide not to wait for the shocks, I'd try to persuade you away from 2.5" spacers.

 

They are in stock, here are some links for you. I ordered from shock surplus just needed the front already had the rears. Should be here Tuesday and they have been good with notifications so far.
