Product Description

The Bilstein 24-185233 is a B6 4600 series front shock absorber engineered for the 1997-2004 Dodge Dakota and 1998-2003 Dodge Durango in 4WD configuration at stock ride height. Using Bilstein's patented 46mm monotube gas-pressure technology with velocity-sensitive digressive valving, this shock delivers consistent, fade-free front damping that significantly outperforms stock OEM units - whether on daily commutes, loaded hauling, towing, or light off-road use.

This is a direct bolt-on replacement covering all 4WD cab styles of the Dakota and all 4WD Durango trims from the same generation platform. It is sold as a single unit - two are required for a complete front shock replacement. This part is for 4WD models only; 2WD Dakota and Durango applications require a different part number. For lifted 4WD Dakota or Durango applications, the Bilstein B8 5100 series is the appropriate alternative.
