High-performance monotube shock absorber for custom applications.
The Bilstein B8 5125 shock absorber is engineered for custom applications, providing a robust solution for vehicles lacking direct Bilstein fitment. This nitrogen gas charged monotube design features a 46mm piston with self-adjusting deflective disc valving, ensuring optimal performance across various driving conditions. The shock absorber's independent rebound and compression tuning allows for precise adjustments, enhancing vehicle handling and ride quality.
Constructed with a larger working piston area, the Bilstein B8 5125 delivers superior control, particularly beneficial for vehicles equipped with large diameter tires. The high-flow piston design minimizes harshness, contributing to a smoother driving experience. With an extended height of 20.38 inches and a compressed height of 13.04 inches, this shock absorber is compatible with a range of custom suspension setups.
The Bilstein B8 5125 is designed with industry-standard 5/8 inch hour glass bushings and is available in both eye/eye and stem/eye mount configurations. Its durable steel body and rod ensure longevity and reliability, making it a preferred choice for suspension builders seeking performance and adaptability.
