Product Description

The Bilstein B8 5160 25-311914 is a rear remote reservoir shock absorber built specifically for the 2014-2023 Ram 2500 4WD running up to 1 inch of rear lift and without factory rear air leveling suspension. Its 46mm monotube body delivers controlled, fade-free damping tuned to the Ram 2500's weight and coil spring suspension - whether the truck is lightly loaded or working hard on rough terrain. The remote reservoir expands oil capacity and dissipates heat far more effectively than a standard shock, keeping performance consistent over long, demanding cycles that a heavy-duty truck regularly encounters.

Installation bolts directly into OEM mounting locations across all cab configurations - Crew Cab, Mega Cab, and Quad Cab - with no cutting or modification required. The included billet reservoir clamp and 360-degree swivel banjo fitting make for a clean, secure setup. Whether your 2500 is a daily tow rig or a weekend off-road truck, the 25-311914 delivers the rear damping performance that the platform demands.
