Product Description

The Bilstein 22-278500 B6 Front Right Strut Assembly is engineered as a performance-oriented replacement for the worn or failed front right strut on 2014-2018 Subaru Forester AWD/4WD vehicles. Part of Bilstein's B6 Performance series, this strut features a velocity-sensitive digressive piston and gas pressure design that delivers responsive damping, improved handling, and stability compared to standard OE units while maintaining stock ride height characteristics. Fitment is confirmed for the Subaru Forester across the listed years.

Designed for direct OE-style installation, the 22-278500 installs easily into the factory mounting points with its fixed integrated spring seat and requires no modifications. Its durable corrosion-resistant yellow finish helps ensure long service life, and the assembly is backed by Bilstein's limited lifetime warranty. Coverage is confirmed through the 2018 model year; fitment beyond this year is unconfirmed at the time of listing.
