Construction & Design

The Bilstein B8 5100 shocks feature a robust monotube construction that separates the gas and oil chambers, reducing aeration and providing consistent damping performance. The smooth body design and zinc plating protect against corrosion and wear, extending the service life of the shocks. The internal velocity-sensitive digressive piston adjusts damping force dynamically, allowing the shocks to respond precisely to varying road conditions and driving styles.

Engineered specifically for lifted Ram 3500 trucks with rear coil springs, these shocks maintain factory ride height compatibility while improving suspension control and comfort.

Installation & Fitment

Designed as a direct replacement for the rear shocks on 2011–2018 and 2019–2026 Ram 3500 models equipped with rear coil springs and a 0 to 1-inch rear lift, installation is straightforward with no modifications required. The shocks come ready to install using existing mounting points, making it a convenient upgrade for enthusiasts and professional installers alike.

For optimal performance, it is recommended to replace both rear shocks simultaneously. The package includes two shocks to cover both sides of the vehicle.
