Product Description

The Bilstein 24-185011 B6 4600 Series Rear Shock is engineered as a direct-fit replacement for the rear suspension of Nissan Frontier and Nissan Xterra vehicles covering 1998 through 2004 model years. Featuring Bilstein's B6 monotube gas-pressure technology with a velocity-sensitive digressive piston, this rear shock delivers consistent damping performance that improves ride comfort, handling, and stability compared to original equipment. It is tuned specifically for the rear geometry of these pickups and SUVs at factory ride height.

Designed for both daily driving and light off-road use, this shock absorber offers enhanced rebound control and reduced body swing under load and cornering. Its high-pressure gas design helps resist performance fade under heavy use, while the durable yellow finish and included blue protective boot help protect key components from corrosion and debris. The Bilstein 24-185011 installs easily using existing rear mounting points, making it a reliable upgrade for Nissan Frontier and Xterra owners seeking improved suspension performance without modifying ride height.
