Features:
If your truck feels rough over bumps, bouncy when towing, or just not as stable as it should be, it might be time to upgrade your rear shocks. The Bilstein B8 5100 Series Rear Shock Pair is built to improve the handling, stability, and ride comfort on your 2011-2024 GM 2500HD or 3500HD, making it a serious upgrade over worn-out factory shocks. Designed to accommodate up to 1 inch of rear lift, these shocks are the perfect solution for trucks with slightly taller rear springs or those looking for better performance without a full suspension overhaul. One of the biggest advantages of these shocks is their monotube gas pressure design, which provides consistent damping and eliminates fade under heavy loads or rough conditions. Factory shocks often struggle to maintain control when towing or carrying weight in the bed, leading to excessive bouncing and poor road handling. What's more, the Bilstein 5100's self-adjusting valving system reacts to changing terrain instantly, keeping your truck planted and predictable, whether you're hauling a trailer, heading down the highway, or navigating uneven trails.
The Bilstein B8 5100 Series shocks are built around a 46mm digressive piston that provides smooth, controlled movement in all driving conditions. The zinc-plated steel body and multi-layer corrosion-resistant coating protect against rust and wear, making them ideal for trucks that frequently see harsh weather, salted roads, or off-road conditions. Unlike stock shocks that wear out quickly under heavy-duty use, these are built to handle the demands of extreme applications without breaking a sweat. Better yet, installing these shocks is simple and straightforward since they are designed as direct bolt-on replacements for your factory shocks. There’s no need for modifications—just remove the old shocks and install these using the existing mounting points. Since they are built to work with stock springs and mounts, they make an easy upgrade for daily-driven trucks, workhorses, and weekend off-road rigs alike.
