Bilstein 24-309509 B8 5100 Adjustable Height Front Coilover Shock Absorber

The Bilstein B8 5100 Ride Height Adjustable shock absorber is engineered specifically for trucks and SUVs equipped with factory coilover-style front suspension systems. This innovative design allows you to level your vehicle or add front lift without replacing the original equipment springs.

Adjustable Ride Height System:

Multiple snap-ring grooves machined into the shock body enable precise spring seat positioning, providing between 0 and 2.75 inches of adjustable front lift when used with OE springs. The exact lift range varies by vehicle application, making this the simplest solution for correcting factory rake or compensating for aftermarket bumpers and winches.

Performance Features:

• Monotube gas-pressure design for consistent performance and fade-free operation
• 46mm digressive piston with self-adjusting deflective disc valving
• Increased wheel travel compared to stock suspension
• Application-specific valve tuning for optimal ride quality and handling
• Zinc-plated steel body with triple-C technology coating for corrosion resistance

Bilstein's patented digressive valving automatically adjusts damping force based on road conditions, providing a comfortable highway ride while maintaining control during off-road use or heavy loads. The B8 5100 series represents a direct upgrade from stock suspension components, requiring no additional modifications for installation.
