Good shocks. As good or better than Bilstein.

That's a bold statement Doolin, and I appreciate it. I have had Bilsteins in the past on 2 different trucks, and was really happy with them. Unfortunately, they show nothing offered as of yet on the 2021. I have read virtually every thread on using the prior year's models on the 21, but not my style. I want something specifically engineered for the new models.
I will keep an eye on these and hope a few more folks respond to this thread.

Many thanks

I ordered a pair of Eibach pro truck sport struts yesterday, no springs just a strut. Looks like the same p/n that goes back to 2015 f-150. I am tacking a little bit of risk on them, because they only list for a 3.5 PB. I have the 5.0. Salesman said they just have not had anyone come in with a 5.0 to have them installed [that's a little weird but oh well]. That being said they appear to me, to be similar to Bilstein's 5100. They use a snap ring for the spring perch with different height settings, 2 inch max. Life time limited warranty, very reasonable price. They are a monotube design vs a twin tube design. Hoping to take away some of the floaty feeling in the ride.

Nice. The previous Ford Performance Fox 2.0 kit was Eibach springs.
I'm also waiting impatiently for a setup engineered specifically to the new suspension.
I also called Fox and they are working on new Gen14 2.0 and 2.5 systems as we speak.
Said current gen are great but were designed in 2015 ish?
He said something about a new set giving more of a Raptor like ride over stock.... Interesting.
I just want an updated 2.0 kit. Prob updated price too lol
Due late this year. Not sure if it will come out with Fox, Roush and Ford kits at same time?
Love Billies, but Fox service is right here in town so long term hoping Fox will be best for me.

I don't know much about Fox other than they are well respected in the off road world. I think they would have been over kill for me. Any more it's gravel roads and towing. Have always ran Ranch 9000s with good luck, but I got tiered of waiting. One thing I read about the Fox is they recommend a rebuild at 30k. That must be in extreme conditions.

It is. I think for day to day driving and light off road or towing, 50K was the recommendation.

Curious how the Eibachs are working out for you Geo?

Just got the Eibach pro truck sport leveling struts on last night. They say 2" of lift on the highest ring setting. I got 2.75" with my factory max tow coil springs. So far ride is good no floating or roll. It looks to be 1/4" high in front. Only 25 mi. So far am hoping they will settle a bit. Went with Geolander G015. 295/70/18 stock sport wheels. No rubbing, even have the factory splash guards. Upper control arm ball joint and side wall is 3/8", 7/16" won't go. I'll post more tomorrow. I think the eibach may be a good fit for me
