Bilstein B8 5100 Monotube Suspension Shock Absorber 24-186018

Bilstein B8 5100 shock absorber part number 24-186018 is engineered as a direct-fit suspension solution for lifted light trucks and SUVs. Designed for select 2012–2016 Ford F-250 Super Duty and F-250 Super Duty applications, this shock helps improve ride quality, handling, and comfort while maintaining dependable performance under changing road conditions. The zinc-plated finish provides durable corrosion resistance, and the smooth-body design is suitable for applications that do not require a coilover configuration.
The B8 5100 uses Bilstein’s monotube internal design with a 46 mm piston and patented digressive valving. This velocity-sensitive piston responds immediately to changing surface conditions, helping provide consistent damping and fade-resistant performance during demanding driving. The non-adjustable damping is specifically tuned for the intended vehicle application, delivering a balanced combination of control and comfort without requiring manual adjustments. A black bellows boot helps protect the shaft from road debris and contamination.
This Bilstein shock absorber features a stem-style upper mount and a 14.4 mm eye-style lower mount. It has a 13.59-inch collapsed length, a 21.42-inch extended length, and 7.83 inches of suspension travel. The 14 mm shaft and zinc-plated body support long-term durability in light-truck use. The unit does not include a reservoir or spring seat and is not designed as a coilover shock. Verify vehicle configuration and suspension lift requirements before installation.
