I own an 2011 Ford F-150 FX2 and I'm shopping around for new adjustable shocks instead to go with the regular leveling kit. I want to lift my truck between 2.5" to 3" in the front because I'm planning to buy big tires for example: I am trying to decide between the "NITTO TERRA GRAPPER 295/70R18 or the "TOYO OPEN COUNTRY AT/II 295/70R18" I understand that the Nitto are cheaper than the Toyo's any suggestions are welcome!!!
Now the question is which adjustable shocks anybody recommend me:
During my research so far for the 4 shocks front and rear at 4Wheel Parts:
1. "4- Bilstein 5100 Series Shocks For Most Lifted Trucks with Black Shock Boots $311.96 with free shipping."
2. "Pro Comp - 2 Front Pro Runner Adjustable Shocks and 2 Rear Pro Runner Monotube Shocks $359.96 with free shipping." all suggestions are welcome.

I have the Nitos , love the tire they are great in the snow here in Colorado . Mine are 35/12.5/18 , but I have a 6 inch lift with adjustable coil over shocks as well . If you go aftermarket on wheels just make sure the offset isnt to deep . My tires stick out further than I would like, but the stance looks good on the truck .
Take a look at the Fab Tech adjustable coild overs , thats what I have and I just love the ride . Almost like being in a car really .

5100's are great at all 4 corners. U need some heavy tools to get up to that 2.5" setting. The springs are really tough up there. These are best done where U carry a load much of the time. MT they are a firm ride, sporty and very controllable. Ride with someone who has done these if U can. I love mine with the Winch and all. No more touching at driveway dips. LOL
