Bilstein B8 5160 Series Front Shock for 2 to 2.50-Inch Lift

Bilstein B8 5160 Series Front Reservoir Shock (2–2.5” Lift)

Enhanced Control for Lifted Trucks

Improve the handling and off-road capability of your lifted Ford Super Duty with the Bilstein B8 5160 Series Front Shock. Designed for trucks equipped with a 2 to 2.5-inch front lift, this high-performance shock provides consistent damping and improved suspension control across changing terrain. The result is a more stable, controlled ride off-road while maintaining comfortable and predictable handling on the highway.

Remote Reservoir Performance

The B8 5160 combines a high-pressure monotube design with an external reservoir to increase oil capacity and improve heat management during demanding use. An Internal Floating Piston separates the pressurized nitrogen from the shock oil, helping minimize aeration and maintain consistent damping performance. Application-specific valving provides responsive control while helping the suspension perform effectively over rough and uneven terrain.

Heavy-Duty Construction

Built for demanding conditions, the B8 5160 features a durable monotube shock body designed for efficient heat dissipation. High-quality seals and a separating piston help provide reliable long-term operation, while Bilstein’s Triple-C corrosion-resistant zinc finish offers additional protection against harsh weather, road salt, and off-road conditions.

Direct Bolt-On Installation

Engineered using vehicle-specific mounting dimensions, this shock installs directly into the factory mounting locations without drilling, cutting, or other modifications. Installation can be completed with basic to moderate mechanical experience and standard tools.

Warranty
