      Excellent fit and finish rear shocks from Billstien. What you would expect from Billstien. Very easy to install and nice upgrade from the stock shocks. The ride quality is significantly improved over stock. The rear end feels planted and controlled now over stock. My F150 has only 42K miles on it and it’s a 2019, the stock rears were perished and worn. Aside from the performance enhancing features they look great too.

      Built for towing

      Went from stock to these they ride like a truck built for towing. I tow my 5,000lb enclosed trailer on a weekly basis I can tell the handling in turns is more relaxed not bouncy. I have a long wheel base F150 this made all the difference in the drive

      Front Shock

      I have never installed shocks before. I followed the video and had little issues. The product came in a box and had the proper hardware I needed. Cannot argue with the price and quality! Truck is a much smoother ride.

      These were better then expected!

      Bought these hoping they would improve the harsh ride that the OEM shocks gave. These shocks are a god send for me as I have a very bad back from the skull to the tail bone. While I typically use Rancho shocks decided to try this brand. Glad I did don't think about it just buy them.

      Excellent shocks

      Had Ranchero shocks for years till once I learned of these Bilstien shocks. What a difference on my 17 F 250. Smooth and super easy to install. Took around 2 hrs.

      Much Better Than. Stock Ranchos

      The ride on the OEM Rancho shocks was extremely rough. My wife is prone to migraines, and couldn’t take riding in my truck for long. I swapped out the rear Ranchos for these, and the ride was much better. I’m very pleased with the Bilstein’s, and will upgrade the front shocks as well.
