Description
Upgrade the ride and handling of your lifted truck or SUV with the Bilstein B8 5100 suspension shock absorber, part number 33-187228. Designed as a direct-fit solution for select applications, this light-truck shock absorber delivers controlled performance, improved comfort, and dependable handling in changing road conditions. Its zinc-plated finish provides durable protection for long-term use.
The B8 5100 uses a 46 mm monotube design to maintain consistent, fade-free performance under demanding driving conditions. A velocity-sensitive, digressive piston responds quickly to road changes, helping provide a controlled ride over uneven surfaces while maintaining stability during braking, cornering, and everyday driving. Bilstein tunes each shock absorber for its specific application to help optimize suspension performance.
This smooth-body, non-coilover shock absorber features non-adjustable damping, an eye-style upper mount, and an eye-style lower mount. It has a 14 mm shaft, no external reservoir, no included boot, and no spring seat. The unit provides approximately 11.56 inches of stroke and is intended for applications requiring a monotube shock absorber with extended travel. Verify vehicle fitment and suspension configuration before installation.
Fitment includes select 2003–2005 Hummer H2, 2004–2005 Dodge Ram 2500, 2004–2005 Dodge Ram 3500, and 2012–2013 Ram 2500 and Ram 3500 applications. This Bilstein B8 5100 shock absorber is engineered for drivers seeking a significant improvement in ride quality, control, and overall suspension response. Installation should be performed using appropriate service procedures and compatible mounting hardware. California Proposition 65 warning: Cancer and Reproductive Harm—www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
