The Bilstein B6 Performance rear damper is a monotube gas pressure shock absorber built as a bolt-in upgrade over the OE unit, with valving calibrated for this specific application so it works with the factory springs and holds stock ride height. The single tube, high pressure gas design separates oil from gas to resist aeration and fade under repeated compression, which tightens body control and keeps the tire loaded over rough pavement. Damping is set at the factory and has no external adjusters. Each unit measures 15.82 in collapsed and 25.25 in extended, uses a stem upper mount with a 14.1 mm eye lower mount, and carries the Bilstein yellow painted body.
