Bilstein 09-13 Ford F150 B8 5160 Rear Shock Absorber

The Bilstein B8 5160 is a remote-reservoir rear shock for a 2011-2013 Ford F-150: 3.5 EcoBoost, 5.0, 6.2 V8, V6, built for lifted trucks and SUVs running off-road.

Why Upgrade

Per Bilstein, the B8 5160 design offers:

• a remote reservoir that Bilstein says adds cooling capacity and wheel travel over a traditional (non-reservoir) shock
• a monotube body with velocity-sensitive digressive valving tuned per application, aimed at consistent, fade-free damping
• a 360-degree swivel banjo hose fitting and a billet reservoir mount, where applicable, for a clean, low-profile install

Fitment Notes

Fits 2011-2013 Ford F-150: 3.5 EcoBoost, 5.0, 6.2 V8, V6. Does not fit F-150: Raptor.

Install and Honest Talk

This is built for a truck that's already lifted or running larger tires off-road; on a stock-height truck a reservoir shock like this is more capability than most daily driving needs. Bilstein does not list hardware as included here. What else you need: [VERIFY: whether mounting hardware and a reservoir clamp/mount are included, and whether the front needs a matching shock for an even stance].

Free US shipping over $99

Orders over $99 ship free by ground to the lower 48 states. Alaska, Hawaii and Canada are not included; shipping to those addresses is calculated at checkout. Some oversize or heavy parts (long-tube exhausts, bumpers, full lift kits) go freight instead of parcel: free to a commercial address with a loading dock, and residential freight delivery carries an additional charge.

When it ships

Parts ship direct from the distributor warehouse that stocks them, so dispatch timing depends on the part, not on a single cutoff. You get a confirmation with tracking as soon as it leaves, and tracking shows the delivery estimate for your address. If a part is backordered we email you an expected availability date.

Missing or damaged items

Report a short shipment or shipping damage within 5 business days of delivery. For a packing error, send us the date or package code printed on the label along with the part number so we can trace it with the warehouse.

We have a 30-day return policy, which means you have 30 days after receiving your item to request a return.

To be eligible for a return, your item must be in the same condition that you received it, unworn or unused, with tags, and in its original packaging. You’ll also need the receipt or proof of purchase.

To start a return, you can contact us at help@anythingcoyote.com or fill our our contact form. If your return is accepted, we’ll send you a return shipping label, as well as instructions on how and where to send your package. Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted.
