Bilstein B8 5100 Series Shock Absorber – 24-186735 (Front)
Upgrade your GM heavy-duty truck or SUV with the Bilstein B8 5100 Series Shock Absorber (part #24-186735). This monotube shock is engineered specifically for lifted applications and delivers a clear improvement in control, comfort, and durability over stock dampers.
Why Choose the Bilstein B8 5100

Key benefits include:
- Consistent, fade-free performance in all conditions
- Vehicle-specific valving for optimal ride and handling
