Fitment Notes

• Fits 4WD (four-wheel drive) Jeep Renegade models only - FWD (front-wheel drive) Renegade variants use different Bilstein strut assemblies and are not compatible with this part
• This is the rear RIGHT (passenger side) strut assembly only - the rear LEFT side requires Bilstein 22-280909; the front left and right are 22-280886 and 22-280893 respectively
• B6 series is a performance upgrade over factory dampers and is designed for use with OE factory springs at stock ride height - it is NOT for use with lowering springs
• Fixed spring seat is integrated into the strut - the factory rear coil spring mounts directly to this unit
• Dust boot not included - reuse factory boot or source separately
• Sold individually - one strut assembly per unit

Features

• B6 Performance twin-tube gas-pressurized design delivers noticeably improved handling, body control, and damping response compared to factory OE struts - tuned specifically for the Jeep Renegade 4WD rear suspension geometry
• Velocity-sensitive digressive piston design reacts dynamically to changing road conditions, providing compliant damping over mild bumps while firming up progressively under aggressive inputs and body roll
• Optimized for use with factory springs at stock ride height - provides a significant performance improvement without requiring any spring changes or ride height alterations
• Stem upper mount and fixed spring seat correspond precisely to the BU-platform Renegade's rear strut attachment points - direct bolt-on installation with no modifications required
• Gas-charged twin-tube construction prevents oil foaming during sustained damping cycles, maintaining consistent rear suspension performance on pavement and light off-road terrain alike
• Application-specific Bilstein valving calibrated and road-tested for the Renegade 4WD rear axle - ensures optimal balance between improved performance and retained daily-driving comfort
• Yellow painted finish - Bilstein's signature B6 Performance identifier
• Backed by Bilstein's Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturer defects for gas pressure shock absorbers and struts

Product Description

The Bilstein 22-280916 is a B6 Performance rear right strut assembly engineered specifically for the 2015-2023 Jeep Renegade (BU platform) in 4WD configuration. The B6 series sits above the OE-replacement B4 in Bilstein's product lineup - it is a genuine performance upgrade, not simply a replacement, using application-specific valving tuned and road-tested for the Renegade 4WD rear suspension to deliver noticeably improved body control, more precise damping response, and better cornering composure compared to the factory struts. It is designed for use with the factory coil springs at stock ride height, making it a bolt-on upgrade that improves the driving dynamics of any 4WD Renegade without requiring spring changes or ride height modification.

This part covers the rear RIGHT (passenger side) position only. The rear left is Bilstein 22-280909; the front left and right are 22-280886 and 22-280893. A critical fitment restriction is the 4WD drivetrain requirement - the Renegade was offered in both FWD and 4WD configurations, and the rear strut assemblies differ between the two. The B6's velocity-sensitive digressive piston reacts proportionally to road and suspension inputs, providing compliant damping over everyday road imperfections while progressively firming up during cornering and more demanding maneuvers. This characteristic makes it equally at home on daily commutes and weekend back-road driving.

The integrated fixed spring seat carries the factory rear coil spring directly. The factory dust boot is not included and should be reused from the original strut or sourced separately. This strut is not for use with lowering springs and is designed to maintain stock ride height. It is backed by Bilstein's Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturer defects.
