Product Description

The Bilstein 24-291743 is a B6 Performance rear shock absorber engineered specifically for the 2017-2021 Honda Civic Hatchback (FWD) across all standard trims: LX, Sport, EX, EX-L, and Sport Touring. As a step above both the factory damper and a standard OE replacement, the B6 series features application-specific valve settings that improve handling precision, reduce body motion, and sharpen steering response - all without sacrificing the daily driveability that Civic Hatchback owners expect. The 46mm monotube design keeps nitrogen gas and hydraulic fluid completely separate, preventing the aeration and fade that develop in conventional twin-tube units over time. This means damping behavior stays consistent whether you're navigating city traffic, carving corners, or managing freeway lane changes.

This shock is a direct bolt-on replacement designed to pair with the vehicle's factory coil springs at OE ride height - no modifications required. It is specific to the Hatchback body style and is not compatible with the Civic Sedan, Coupe, Si, or Type R, all of which use different suspension geometry and part numbers. Sold individually, two units are required for a complete rear axle replacement. The 24-291743 is the correct choice for 10th Gen Civic Hatchback owners seeking a proven performance upgrade over worn factory dampers, backed by Bilstein's Lifetime Limited Warranty for the original purchaser.
