Bilstein 24-359832 B8 5100 Ride Height Adjustable Front Shock Absorber

The Bilstein 24-359832 B8 5100 Ride Height Adjustable front shock absorber is a premium monotube strut designed for trucks and SUVs with front OE coilover-style suspension. Engineered as a practical, all-in-one alternative to coil spring spacers, it delivers a genuine performance upgrade while allowing front-end lift using the factory coil springs and OEM mounting hardware.

Multiple snap-ring grooves machined into the shock body allow the adjustable spring seat to be repositioned, providing 0 to 2.5 inches of front lift (depending on application) without the need for separate spacer kits or modified springs. The result is increased wheel travel and improved suspension geometry compared to conventional lift solutions.

Key Features:

• 46mm Monotube Design: Gas-pressure monotube construction delivers consistent, fade-free damping performance under all driving conditions
• Digressive Piston Valving: Patented velocity-sensitive, self-adjusting deflective disc valve instantly reacts to changing road and trail conditions for optimal ride control
• Ride Height Adjustable: Snap-ring grooves on the shock body allow 0–2.5 inches of front lift using the vehicle's stock coil springs
• Zinc-Plated Finish: Corrosion-resistant zinc plating protects against harsh environments, extended off-road use, and road salt exposure

• Application-Specific Tuning: Valving is optimized for each specific vehicle to ensure maximum performance and ride comfort
