American trucks is now listing the Bilstein 5100 shocks as fitting the 2021 F150. Is this legit? Bilstein has nothing on their site about it and other suppliers still aren’t saying they fit.

Shocks from previous gen fit perfectly fine, I have them on mine and don't see any difference in the shocks.

I know they physically fit and there wouldn’t be much difference in performance but I think Bilstein was recommending to wait for a new version.

you like them over stock? Can you describe the improvements?
I didn't see as much improvement as I did on my previous trucks, they weren't fx4's though, and therefore I am thinking that the fx4 shocks are better than the sport package shocks. I still need to do the front struts, as that is where my complaints are with the factory ride, its way too "floaty" on the highway, like a 70's Lincoln!
