Glad I didn't have the same problem.

Best of luck

Had the same problem when I ordered my 5100's.
Bilstein can't make them fast enough, after installing them now I know why.

THEY ARE WORTH THE WAIT.

From what I could tell from all of my research the 5100's and the 5125's are the same thing. The difference comes with the application. The 5100's are sold by application, and the 5125's you can order by length/size. My f150 is lifted so I didn't order them for an f150, I just ordered the length I needed.

Hope this helps anyone who needs to order shocks.
And yes they are worth the wait.

I was thinking about getting all new rancho 9000xL shocks with the wireless remote off a site for $549 plus u get a $100 visa card back.... But I was wondering if I put a 2.5" hbs level on my 05 2wd if the front shocks will fit and not mess anything up?

I ordered mine from www.summitracing.com. AWESOME customer service. ordered the back 2 Bilstein HD eventhough they said it was on back order for another month; however, in less than 2 weeks they were at my door. They shipped each shock from a different warehouse so I got a single shock per box at no cost to me. www.summitracing.com will get you the parts you need.
