How easy is it to change the height settings and can it be done with the struts still in the truck?
This might be a good option for a guy wanting to keep the warranty intact. Drop the height back down to stock if you need to bring the truck in. Jack it back up when you get it back.
This is assuming its not a huge PIA to adjust the height.

The answer to your question is no. The 5100's cannot be adjusted while still mounted. Unless you found a way to fitta small spring compressor in there. But chances of that are very slim.

5100's at AJ's
Just a heads up, I put a call in to AJusa today and their currently out of front adj 5100's for '09-'11 150's. Guess Bilstein is backed up at the moment. I was informed that more were expected to arrive the beginning of next week and i was placed 6th in line for them.
If you want them now you better call and get in line!
They also gave me the "F150forum" discount over the phone with free shipping. $309 for all 4 shocks, now to wait patiently.

These were for a 2011 Lariat 4X4 Screw

Thanks for the info...I have had mine on order since 9/30 and they show a December 15-20 ship date. So hopefully they are getting more next week and beat that ship date I was told... Below is the email from them......

Bilstein has announced they will be receiving more tomorrow or Wednesday. They will be shipping as soon as received.
Apologize for the delay, these were sold out when the 2011's starting rolling out, very popular upgrade and because of Bilsteins huge catalog, it takes them awhile to get back around to producing more.

Anyone with an Ecoboost 4x4 install these? If so, did you use the 2nd (.75") or 3rd (1.5") setting to level?
With the Eco engine being lighter I heard these shocks may lift more than indicated (??).
