Shock replacement

Post by Big Bird »

I have an 09 Ford F250 4 door, Lariat, diesel, RWD with air bags.

Bilstein says their 5100 series will not work as they require 4WD. They say go with 4600 series, which I think is a big step down. Before I reorder, I would appreciate thoughts and recommendations.


Thanks,
Big Bird

I have put 4600 on my trucks for years they work great . 5100 even 4wd you need a one inch lift kit to use them . 4600 WORK GREAT
