Shane from Bilstein Shock Absorbers takes us through Bilstein's off-road performance series shock absorbers at their 2018 Overland Expo West booth.
Starting with the B6 4600 series; this is an ideal gas pressure shock absorber for both on and off road use. It's built for a wide range of vehicles and the digressive valving instantly reacts to changing road surfaces.
Next is the B8 5100 series which is designed for lifted trucks and SUVs. These perform well both on and off road, are a monotube construction, and tuned for oversized tires and different spring rates.
An off shoot of the 5100 series is the 5100 Ride Height Adjustable designed the front of half-ton trucks and SUVs. It is a perfect alternative to coil spring spacers, using the factory coil and is direct bolt on. Most commonly used for Toyota Tacomas and 4Runners, these shocks can adjust from 0-3 inches of lift.
Then we have the Bilstein B8 5160 series for aggressive off-road performance. It has a remote reservior which provides more control in over harsh terrain.
Moving up to the 6100 series, we have a B8 6112; a front coilover replacement kit for late model half ton trucks. It comes with two 60 mm shocks and two springs. They're ride height adjustable, leveling or lifting your vehicle, increasing ground clearance, and installing larger tires.
Finally the newest product is the 8100 series B8 8112 (zonecontrol CR) suspension kit for 2005-2018 Toyota Tacoma. The front shocks are coilovers with position sensitive valving and a hydraulic compression stop and rebound stop inside, with 3 separate control zones for compression, and 2 separate control zones for rebound. For the rear, this kit offers a 60 mm piston external bypass shock that is position sensitive. Expansion is in the works, and fitments for the Jeep JK and Toyota 4Runner are expected next.
