If I get these strutes for my front could I use Bilstein 5100 series shocks still? Will the shocks fit in that housing?This is like a coil over shok?

The coils / struts (aka shocks) comes as a complete assembly .... So no putting things together .... Just take old assembly off and bolt new one in ..... If you are talking about rear shocks .... Sure you can use whatever

No, no, and yes. This setup is for a 2004-2008 F150 which uses (from factory) one shock (aka:strut) and spring per wheel. This kit includes one shock (aka:strut) AND one spring that is already put together. It WILL replace your current spring and your Blistein 5100 shock (aka: strut).

No it comes as a complete set. The Bulstein set up uses your stock spring I believe.

It well just not as desired especially the v6 model and the extra weight. Don't do it you'll ruin your shocks and have to replace everything maybe spending hundreds if u have someone doing it or maybe at the least 200 if u do it. These things are a joke. Buy quality with the spring already attached to the strut

As long as your mounting holes are 13.5 inches. Great shocks, but even better are the mono tubes for the front. Best upgrade I did on my bike, and I've did many..........

I only installed them on the rear, and haven't checked to see if they are compatible to the front shock.

These are for the front only. You'd be wise to avoid these struts altogether as they've proven to be Monroe "Problem-Matics" with the most common complaints being noise related. I installed these myself and immediately experienced loud metallic grinding and squeaking noises emanating from the struts. The cause with both struts turned out to be a defective upper mount bearing and metal-to-metal contact between the coil spring and upper strut plate. As with most everything else, you get what you pay for when it comes to struts. After arranging a return and refund from Amazon, I replaced these pieces of junk with Moog struts which have performed flawlessly. These are for the front only.

It's per shock and they're for the rear because I ordered four because it claimed to fit all four areas so take a look at your front and see if the shocks are different from the rear good luck mate

You should not need longer shocks. I just recently put these on my 2000 F-150 2WD and am still using the stock shocks. You shouldn't "need" anything else for installation. But keep in mind the age of our trucks. Things will likely break when you start ripping them apart or you may find things in need of replacement while you're under there. I had two bad ball joints and another on its way out so I replaced all four while I was there. Your end links will likely break when you take them apart so expect to replace those (less than $10). Other than that it's just a bit of hard work. Good luck if you decide to install them on your truck, I love the way they look on mine.

According to the manufacturer, they will only fit 2004 and newer models. They make an 11.75" shock for that model, it is part number FS-04501-SET. Thanks.

Yes they fit and work grea. If you have duals or a custom exhaust you might have trouble because they are a lot thicker then the stock shocks.

No you dont. Because its not a dramatic drop. Now if you went with a 4 or a 6 inch drop I would recommend buying new shocks for the amount of drop you did. Like Bilstein or Eibach.

I added the Rancho shocks up front and the Fab Tech add a leaf 1.5. In the back for a 2-3 inch lift all around. We replaced the rear shocks with bilstien 4600. This is on my 2001 2WD Tacoma. After having done this, I would have put bilstien 5100 in the back. Otherwise everything works/looks nice!

Yes, struts are for the front. As opposed to the shocks that are for the back.

The front takes the same shock on both sides. It is the rear that takes different shocks for each side. If you read my review on changing out this product, I should have listed which ones are the front. Otherwise, if Amazon's info does not provide your answer, just go to Monroe like I did. Took me a whole 5 minutes to find the answer.

Should not be a problem as the sensatrac shocks install just like original shocks. You should be pleased with the ride quality as well as the load leveling capabiliity. One thing though, have the rear suspension extended as much as you can as the sensatrac shock is pretty stiff and the coil over doesn't compress manually. I used a separate jack under the shock lower housing to lower the suspension to line up the bolt holes. Hope this helps.

This shock fit it with a 4" lift. Go to ranching website and it will tell you what shock to buy. It will be different part numbers for front and rear. I would recommend the 9000 they ride great and have lots of adjustment to dial them in to your liking

These are sold separately, be sure you look up your vehicle on Rancho's website for proper shock model # for the 9000 series. There's 2 reasons for this: 1.Amazon's fitment guide is not always correct. 2.Most vehicles do not have the same shocks front and back or may have shocks and struts depending on load and handling requirements. These are awesome shocks, make sure you follow instructions and tighten bolts properly, if they're tight but not tight enough you'll get thumping noises. Good luck.

Huh? Shocks are for the rear of the jeep and struts are for the front of the jeep. Cross check the part numbers on Monroe's website. Also, these shocks are "OK".... I did not notice a huge difference in ride quality. The photo does not do this part any justice. Good luck
