Construction & Design

The Bilstein B6 4600 shock absorbers are crafted using high-quality materials and precision engineering. The monotube design features a single tube filled with high-pressure nitrogen gas, which prevents oil foaming and ensures consistent damping performance under demanding conditions. The digressive piston technology provides a velocity-sensitive response, allowing the shock to soften over small bumps for comfort while stiffening during aggressive maneuvers for control.

Each shock is specifically tuned to the Jeep Grand Cherokee’s suspension geometry and weight distribution, ensuring that the ride height remains true to OEM specifications. This meticulous design approach results in a shock absorber that enhances both ride quality and handling without compromising durability.
