The Bilstein 6112 is the clean, direct-fit way to level your F-150 and upgrade ride control. Massive 60 mm monotube shocks with digressive pistons and vehicle-specific coils deliver real damping and better wheel control on- and off-road. Multiple snap-ring grooves let you set ride height from stock up to ~2.75" (application-dependent).
Why it hits
-
Big-body control: 60 mm bodies = more oil volume, better cooling, longer life.
-
Monotube design: Consistent, fade-free damping in heat, cold, and repeated hits.
-
Digressive piston: Plush over chatter, firm support in the turns and whoops.
-
Height adjustable: Set preload via snap-rings for 0–2.75" of front lift*.
-
Matched coils: Cold-wound, linear-rate springs engineered for your truck.
-
Made in the USA with a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
*Most F-150 applications level happily in the ~1.75–2.5" range. Exact max lift varies by model/trim.

Builder’s checklist
-
Measure your actual rake before choosing perch height.
-
If pairing with 33s, confirm wheel offset/BS for UCA & liner clearance.
-
For balanced feel, add quality rear shocks (5100/5160 or equivalent).
