Default bilstein 5100 shocks and level kit

I currently have a 2 inch leveling kit on my 07. I recently ordered 20x10 wheels with -24 offset and 35x12.50 tires, and I'm thinking I will need more lift to accommodate them. I heard about the ride height adjustment bilstein 5100 shocks and was wondering if I could get them to lift it an extra 1-2 inches of lift. I was thinking of getting a block in the rear to level it back out, any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

in 2014, the rear shock/strut mount on the front suspension changed (compared to previous years) ... the 2015's are same as the 2014's ... and unfortunately, Bilstein doesn't yet make any 5100 adjustables for 2014+ F150's.

So, it's not an option for you to go that route, yet.

No problem buddy the bilstein s are great but I know a lot of people who have your body style truck with all sorts of front end problems with leveling kits over 2" I wouldn't do a level over 2" if you can avoid it
