Product Description

The Bilstein 24-009461 B6 Performance front shock absorber is a high-quality replacement designed specifically for classic Chevrolet Corvette models from 1963 through 1982. Constructed with a monotube gas pressure design and tuned valving, this shock improves damping consistency, handling precision, and overall road control compared to standard original equipment shocks while maintaining the vehicle's stock ride height.

This performance shock pairs directly with the factory suspension springs and installs into original front mounting locations without modifications, making it an excellent choice for restorations, daily driving, or spirited use. Its durable finish and robust construction help ensure long service life, and the improved response delivers enhanced stability and confidence behind the wheel. Sold individually, two shocks are typically required for a complete front suspension refresh.
