Part #: 24-185929
Overview
The Bilstein B8 5100 Front Shock Absorbers are engineered specifically for lifted Jeep Wrangler TJ models from 1997 to 2006, equipped with a 4-inch front lift and long arm lift kits. Designed as a direct-fit replacement, these shocks deliver enhanced ride quality, improved handling, and superior comfort for off-road enthusiasts and daily drivers alike. Whether tackling rugged trails or cruising city streets, the B8 5100 shocks provide consistent, fade-free performance tailored to the demands of lifted vehicles.
Built to meet the unique suspension requirements of lifted Jeep Wranglers, these shocks optimize damping characteristics to maintain control and stability under varying road conditions. The result is a smoother, more controlled ride that enhances both safety and driving enjoyment.
Key Features
The Bilstein B8 5100 shocks incorporate advanced technology and design elements to ensure reliable performance and durability. Key features include:
- Monotube design for consistent, fade-free damping performance
- Velocity sensitive, digressive piston that adapts to changing road surfaces
- Application-specific tuning for optimal ride and handling on lifted Jeep Wranglers
- Direct-fit installation requiring no modifications
- Durable construction designed to withstand off-road conditions
- Improved vehicle control and reduced body roll during cornering
- Limited lifetime warranty for long-term peace of mind
- Sold as a pair for both front suspension sides
Construction & Design
The Bilstein B8 5100 shocks feature a robust monotube design that allows for superior heat dissipation and consistent damping performance, even under extreme conditions. The monotube construction also provides a larger piston surface area compared to twin-tube shocks, resulting in more precise control and quicker response to road irregularities.
Each shock is engineered with a velocity sensitive, digressive piston that adjusts damping force based on the speed of suspension movement. This technology ensures a smooth ride over small bumps while providing firm control during aggressive driving or off-road maneuvers. The shocks are built with high-quality materials and corrosion-resistant finishes to endure harsh environments and extend service life.
Installation & Fitment
These Bilstein B8 5100 front shocks are designed as a direct replacement for 1997–2006 Jeep Wrangler TJ models equipped with a 4-inch front lift and long arm lift kits. Installation is straightforward and requires no additional modifications or special tools, making it accessible for both professional mechanics and experienced DIY enthusiasts. For best results, it is recommended to replace both front shocks simultaneously to maintain balanced suspension performance.
