Description
The Bilstein B8 5165 Remote Reservoir Shock Absorber is built for custom off-road trucks and SUVs requiring superior suspension control, durability, and extended wheel travel. Engineered for demanding off-road environments, this high gas pressure monotube shock absorber delivers reliable damping performance, improved heat management, and exceptional ride control across rough terrain.
Designed with a 46mm monotube shock body, the Bilstein B8 5165 provides consistent fade-free performance while maintaining responsive suspension characteristics in aggressive driving conditions. The remote reservoir design increases shock oil capacity for greater heat dissipation, helping maintain stable damping performance during extended off-road use and high-speed applications.
Bilstein’s self-adjusting deflective disc valving technology allows the shock absorber to react instantly to changing surface conditions, improving vehicle control, handling stability, and ride quality. The included 360-degree swivel banjo hose fitting supports a clean and low-profile installation for custom suspension configurations.
Built to withstand extreme off-road abuse, the B8 5165 remote reservoir shock absorber enhances suspension durability and overall vehicle performance in harsh environments.
