Bilstein 24-336246 B6 4600 Rear Shock 2024-2026 Ford Ranger XL XLT Lariat Excl R

Vehicle Fitment

• 2024-2026 Ford Ranger XL (All Drivetrains) - Stock Height - Rear
• 2024-2026 Ford Ranger XLT (All Drivetrains) - Stock Height - Rear
• 2024-2026 Ford Ranger Lariat (All Drivetrains) - Stock Height - Rear

Fitment Notes

• Excludes Ford Ranger Raptor - the Raptor uses a dedicated high-clearance suspension system incompatible with this shock absorber.
• Stock height applications only - this is a direct OE upgrade, not a lift shock. No ride height change is provided.
• Rear position only, left or right - sold as a single shock absorber. Order 2 for a complete rear axle replacement.
• Non-adjustable damping - velocity-sensitive digressive valving automatically adapts to road conditions without manual adjustment.
• Designed to work with OE factory springs and OE mounting hardware - no spring replacement or modification required.
• Factory shock mounting hardware is reused for installation.

Features

• Bilstein B6 4600 - Bilstein's direct OE upgrade series for light trucks and SUVs at stock height, delivering a significant improvement in ride quality, handling stability, and damping control over the factory rear shocks on the 2024-2026 Ranger platform.
• 46mm monotube gas pressure design provides consistent, fade-free damping performance - eliminating the aeration and heat fade that degrades standard twin-tube shocks under sustained or demanding use.
• Velocity-sensitive digressive piston automatically reacts to changing road conditions, delivering appropriate damping response whether on smooth pavement, highway on-ramps, or rough off-road terrain.
• Application-specific valve settings tuned by Bilstein engineers for the fourth-generation Ranger's rear suspension geometry and weight distribution.
• Improved rear body control, traction, and ride comfort over stock - particularly beneficial when towing or carrying payload near the Ranger's rated capacity.
• Direct bolt-in installation using factory mounting hardware - no modifications required.

Product Description

The Bilstein 24-336246 is a B6 4600 rear shock absorber for the 2024-2026 Ford Ranger XL, XLT, and Lariat at stock height - excluding the Ranger Raptor. The B6 4600 is Bilstein's direct OE upgrade line for light trucks: designed as a drop-in replacement for the factory rear shocks with substantially better damping performance, while retaining stock ride height, factory springs, and factory mounting hardware. For fourth-generation Ranger owners experiencing increased body bounce, reduced rear traction, or degraded ride quality from worn or stock-quality rear shocks, the 24-336246 is a meaningful upgrade.

The 46mm monotube gas pressure design with velocity-sensitive digressive piston delivers consistent, fade-free damping that reacts automatically to road conditions - providing improved body control during daily driving, better stability when towing near capacity, and noticeably more composed behavior on rough surfaces versus the factory shocks. Application-specific valve settings are tuned for the fourth-generation Ranger's rear suspension geometry. This is a stock-height, non-adjustable shock - for lift applications, see Bilstein's B8 5100 or B8 6100 options for the Ranger. Sold individually - order two for a complete rear axle replacement. Backed by Bilstein's Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturer defects.
