Bilstein 1997-2003 Ford F150 4x4 4" Lift Rear Shock # 24-185417

Bilstein 5100 Series Shock Absorber Part # 24-185417. This shock is only for use on 1997-2003 Ford F150 4x4 trucks equipped with a 3" to 4" rear lift. If you've installed a 6" lift there is a good chance the rear suspension on your truck was only lifted between 3" and 4" inches. If you want something better than the "white can" shocks most lift companies include with their kits the Bilstein 5100 is an excellent upgrade.

For over 40 years Bilstein has been a unique and driving force in the automotive suspension industry. During that time Bilstein Gas Pressure Shock Absorbers haven proven to be the best. Yes, the best. If youve never experienced the exhilaration you feel when driving a vehicle equipped with Bilstein Shocks, youre in for a pleasant surprise. Youll soon discover there is, quite literally, nothing like it. Unbelievable control. Precise handling. Ultimate performance. And incredible comfort. Bilstein performance shocks put most stock shocks to shame.

Most conventional shocks are made with shock bodies cut from a piece of steel tubing, stamped internal parts and compromised tolerances. In contrast, Bilsteins shock bodies are precision formed through a unique seamless extrusion process. This provides superior strength along with high finish tolerances that are usually associated with surgical instruments. The finished body is then mated with a solid, induction hardened steel chrome plated and polished shaft, machined valving components and the highest quality seals available. Combine these features with extreme attention to detail and Bilstein provides you with the closest thing to a hand built shock available today. Conventional shocks can lose efficiency and eventually fail over a period of time causing excessive tire and suspension wear. Bilstein Shocks continue to deliver optimum performance for the life of the vehicle.

Of all your suspension components, nothing works harder than your shock absorbers, making it critical you pick the right ones for your vehicle. Bilstein Gas Pressure Shock Absorbers are the least expensive, fastest way to dramatically improve the ride, handling and control of your new vehicle. Plus, with Bilsteins lifetime warranty, you may never have to purchase shock absorbers again. Knowing what goes into each Bilstein shock is one thing... winning races is proof that Bilstein technology really works. Dale Earnhardt was able to win 7 Winston Cup Championships while running Bilstein shock absorbers - nuff said!
