Bilstein B6 4600 Series Rear Shock Absorber
Part # 24-269439 | 2014–2025/2026 Ram 2500 2WD (Stock Height)

Upgrade your Ram 2500’s rear suspension with the Bilstein B6 4600 — a direct-fit monotube shock engineered for stock-height 2WD trucks. It delivers firmer control, better stability when towing or hauling, and a more composed daily ride than worn factory shocks, without changing ride height.

Bilstein B6 4600 shocks are built as a performance replacement for OE shocks on stock-height light trucks. The 46mm monotube, high-pressure gas design runs cooler and more consistently than typical twin-tube shocks, so damping stays fade-free on long highway runs, under load, or on rough pavement. Application-specific valving and a velocity-sensitive digressive piston react instantly to changing road conditions — more control when you need it, more comfort when you don’t.

Key features

• 46mm monotube gas-pressure design for consistent, fade-free performance
• Velocity-sensitive digressive valving that adapts to the road in real time
