FYI

For those who like Bilstien...I spoke with the Bilstien rep while ordering shocks and he says that they will be coming out with a steering stabilizer system in the spring.
I guess I will wait for replacement till then.

Maybe they'll have another 4 for 3 deal!

My shocks are so old they're asking for retirement benefits.

I thought that Pete (F_250) had found a shock from them that bolted up to the factory steering stabilizer. I could be mistaken though.

I had heard on here that someone had used a bilstien shock for a stabilizer, but, I never heard how it worked out. From what he tells me this setup will be designed for this purpose.

My stabilizer has been MIA for at least 50k, I want it back...
Im a fan of Bilstien, I have them all around my mustang, best non adjustable shock/strut you can buy in my opinion.

I used a 5100 series shock, Works fine so far. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/8...izer-part.html

Thanks for the heads up on the new Bilstein products Patrick.
