Product Description
The BILSTEIN 24-251747 5100 Series Shock Absorber is specifically engineered for 2013-2023 Ram 3500 4WD trucks equipped with a 2-2.5" front lift. Designed to handle the added demands of lifted diesel trucks, this Bilstein B8 5100 shock delivers exceptional ride control, durability, and performance both on and off-road.
Utilizing Bilstein’s proven 46mm monotube gas pressure design, this shock ensures consistent, fade-free performance by efficiently dissipating heat—even under heavy towing, hauling, or rough terrain conditions.
The velocity-sensitive digressive piston automatically adjusts to changing road surfaces, providing a smooth ride during daily driving while maintaining firm control during aggressive driving, towing, or off-road use. This shock is precisely tuned for lifted applications, making it a superior upgrade over stock or generic aftermarket shocks.
Finished with a zinc-plated corrosion-resistant coating, the 5100 Series is built to withstand harsh environments, road salt, and long-term use without compromising performance.
