Finally my turn, today I put on the Billstein 5100's set at 1.30. The truck now has 1 inch of rake with the rear at 40 in. and the front at 39. The tires are Falken Wildpeaks 275/60/20's. I am really pleased with the look and how it rides.
Bilstein 5100 shocks all around with front at highest setting (2.5" actual lift / 0.25" rake). Tires are BF Goodrich 305/55-R20 All-Terrain TA KO2s. I love the ride.

It's so weird how trucks vary. I'm told Ford has numerous spring part #'s for the front of F150's and I think this contributes to the inconsistency. My Bilsteins are at the highest setting also, but definitely provided no more than 2" lift.
IAjack that looks great...I am planning on doing the same thing,but I was wondering if it caused your steering wheel not to be centered and if you had to have an alignment afterwards? i am going to keep the stock tires though. and do the Billsteins ride better than stock?

That truck we're seeing has a Plat grille. Is it a Platinum? because those things are loaded. Should be heaviest of them all and not sit so high... then there's the added weight of the bull bar. I think there's still a puck spacer up in there. His front suspension looks topped out.
