Product Description
The BILSTEIN 24-302043 5100 Series Rear Shock Absorber is engineered specifically for 2019-2023 Ram 2500 4WD trucks running a 0-1" rear lift. Designed for leveled and lightly lifted applications, this premium B8 5100 shock delivers superior control, durability, and off-road capability compared to factory shocks.
Built with Bilstein’s advanced 46mm monotube gas pressure design, this shock provides consistent, fade-free performance even under extreme towing, hauling, and off-road conditions. The larger piston area and high-pressure nitrogen gas system help maintain precise damping and improved ride stability.
