Product Description

The Bilstein 24-188180 B8 5100 front shock absorber is engineered as a performance-oriented upgrade for lifted Jeep Wrangler TJ models (1997-2006) with approximately 3.5"-4" short-arm front lift setups. As part of Bilstein's B8 5100 Series, this shock uses a high-pressure monotube design with a velocity-sensitive digressive piston that responds instantly to changing terrain, providing improved damping control and handling for lifted trucks and SUVs.

Finished in a corrosion-resistant zinc plated coating and featuring a direct-fit design with OE-style mounts, the 24-188180 installs easily on compatible Jeep suspension systems. Its performance tuning enhances ride quality on and off the road, making it ideal for lifted Wrangler applications where increased wheel travel and suspension articulation demand more consistent damping performance. Sold individually, two shocks are typically required for a complete front axle upgrade, and the product is backed by Bilstein's limited lifetime warranty.
