Product Description
The BILSTEIN 24-302326 5100 Series Shock Absorber is engineered for the rear of your 2013-2023 Ram 3500 4WD equipped with a mild lift of 0-1". Designed specifically for lifted truck applications, this Bilstein B8 5100 shock delivers superior control, ride comfort, and durability for heavy-duty diesel performance.
Built with Bilstein’s advanced monotube gas pressure technology, this shock ensures consistent, fade-free performance even under heavy towing, hauling, or off-road conditions. The larger 46mm piston and high-pressure gas design improve heat dissipation and provide better damping control compared to traditional twin-tube shocks.
The velocity-sensitive digressive piston automatically adjusts to road conditions, offering firm handling when needed and a smooth ride during everyday driving. Each shock is tuned specifically for your Ram 3500 to ensure optimal performance with lifted suspension setups.
This is a direct-fit rear shock absorber designed for easy installation without modifications, making it the perfect upgrade for diesel truck owners looking to improve both on-road and off-road performance.
