Description
The Bilstein B8 5160 remote reservoir shock absorber, part number 25-311754, is engineered as a direct-fit suspension upgrade for lifted light trucks and SUVs. Its remote reservoir increases oil capacity and cooling performance while supporting additional wheel travel, helping maintain consistent damping during demanding off-road driving. This shock absorber is designed for select Ram and Dodge Ram 2500, 3500, and 1500 applications, including model years from 2004 through 2013. Confirm vehicle fitment before installation.
The 46mm monotube design delivers consistent, fade-resistant performance across changing driving conditions. Bilstein’s velocity-sensitive digressive valving is specifically tuned for the application, providing controlled suspension response on pavement while allowing the suspension to react effectively over rough terrain. The smooth-body, non-coilover construction uses non-adjustable damping for dependable operation and straightforward installation.
A zinc-plated finish supports long-term durability, while the 14mm shaft and eye-style lower mount provide a robust connection at the suspension. The upper stem mount is designed for compatible factory-style mounting locations. The integrated remote reservoir and 360-degree swivel banjo hose fitting help maximize cooling and suspension travel while maintaining a clean, low-profile appearance. A billet reservoir clamp is not included, so verify mounting hardware requirements for the intended vehicle.
