Description
Upgrade the suspension performance of your lifted truck or SUV with the Bilstein B8 5100 24-218023 suspension shock absorber. Engineered as a direct-fit replacement for select Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD applications, this light-truck shock absorber is tuned for the specific vehicle platform to support improved ride quality, handling, and comfort. Its smooth-body construction and zinc-plated finish provide dependable durability for demanding road and towing conditions.
The Bilstein B8 5100 uses a monotube internal design with a large piston and patented digressive valving. This velocity-sensitive piston responds immediately to changing road surfaces, helping maintain consistent tire contact and controlled suspension movement. The monotube design also helps deliver fade-resistant performance during extended use, while the non-adjustable damping is calibrated for the intended application. A black bellows boot helps protect the shaft from road debris and environmental exposure.
This Bilstein shock features a clevis lower mount and bar-pin upper mount for direct installation on compatible vehicles. It includes an 8.25-inch stroke and a 15.98-inch collapsed length, with an extended length of 24.26 inches. The 14mm shaft and 46mm piston are designed to provide reliable control without requiring a separate reservoir or spring seat. Verify vehicle year, model, suspension configuration, and lift specifications before ordering. Fits select 2012–2014 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD, Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD, GMC Sierra 2500 HD, and GMC Sierra 3500 HD applications. This product carries a California Proposition 65 warning for cancer and reproductive harm.
