Upgrade the suspension performance of your lifted truck or SUV with the Bilstein B8 5100 suspension shock absorber, part number 33-066868. Designed as a direct-fit replacement for select 1984–1993 Jeep Cherokee applications, this shock absorber is specifically tuned to deliver improved ride quality, handling, and comfort. The B8 5100 series is engineered for light-truck use and is an excellent choice for drivers seeking dependable control on changing road surfaces.
The 46mm monotube design provides consistent, fade-resistant performance by maintaining effective damping control under demanding conditions. A velocity-sensitive, digressive piston responds quickly to changing terrain while helping maintain stable handling and a controlled ride. The non-adjustable damping configuration is calibrated for the specific application, supporting predictable suspension behavior without requiring manual adjustments. The smooth-body, non-coilover construction is finished with a durable zinc-plated exterior for long-term protection.
This Bilstein shock absorber includes a black bellows boot and uses a bar-pin upper mount with a 16mm eye lower mount. It has a 14mm shaft, an 8.96-inch stroke, and no external reservoir or spring seat. The shock absorber measures 14.88 inches when collapsed and 23.84 inches when extended. Confirm vehicle fitment and suspension configuration before ordering. Compatible applications include the 1984 through 1993 Jeep Cherokee, subject to the vehicle’s specific suspension setup.
