So I tried ordering the Ford Performance levelling kit but was told it had been discontinued. I’d like to stick to Ford parts so as not to void the warranty, has anyone heard different or aware of a Ford replacement to the M-18000-F15B?

I have had two different f-150s with the Roush kit. With both trucks the dealership installed the parts. Roush warranties them. I've also had Ford performance parts installed on those same trucks. They had different warranty terms. I had the dealership do them so if there is any warranty issues I could point to them. With all of those parts installed it always went under the new manufacturers warranty not ford. I know both Roush and Ford performance has their own warranties. As someone who always purchases Ford protect this is always a big concern of mine. I always want to see the fine print before I do anything. No such thing as Ford warranty on any aftermarket parts. I called Ford Performance about this years ago....

They are working on getting it out again. Last thing I heard was that they should release it during Q4 of this year.

I heard Ford is working on a new FP leveling kit, but don't know the release date. First kit was partnered with Fox, then Bilstien, and who knows for the next one.

We actually FINALLY got a call back from the Ford Performance reps as we reached out about this a few weeks ago.

The details are still somewhat unclear, but what we were told is a couple different things.
First they notified us that they intentionally shut off all orders from their website and many other FP dealers (such as dealerships and OEM part suppliers) as their back log was getting to be too large and out of control. They did say however that they are making a revision to these kits. They were running into a few issues with seals leaking and the ever famous corrosion problem that was just destroying kits. They said they have hopes of having the new version out sometime in October; but with how deep their back orders are it may be quite some time before they are all caught up.

To add to this, Bilstein is also still on a delay as well. Even though this particular kit is a Ford Performance branded kit, they still work with Bilstein for the components. So something tells us that while Bilstein states their ever popular 6112s are being shipped out for restocks towards end of this month flowing into October; we still think the FP kits are going to be delayed for quite some time sadly.
