- When does Bilstein run sales?
- Bilstein itself rarely discounts; most savings come from retailers' seasonal events like Black Friday, Memorial Day and truck-month promotions. Check the price history on each product page to see whether a current price is above or below its usual level.
- Where is Bilstein cheapest?
- Prices vary by retailer and by whether the shock is sold singly or in a set. Compare the same part number across stores here, since a 5100 front shock and a pair set are not directly comparable.
- What is the difference between Bilstein 5100 and B6 4600?
- The 5100 is a monotube shock with adjustable front spring perches for 0-2.5 inches of lift on the Ram 1500. The B6 4600 is the stock-height replacement with fixed perches, so it suits trucks that are not lifted.
- Do Bilstein shocks fit both 2WD and 4WD Ram 1500s?
- Fitment depends on the part number. The 5100 set and B6 4600 listed here are for 4WD 2009-2018 trucks, while the 5100 front shock covers 0-2.5 inches of lift. Confirm your drivetrain and year before ordering.
- What is the warranty and return policy on Bilstein shocks?
- Bilstein backs its shocks with a limited lifetime warranty against defects for the original purchaser. Returns are handled by the selling store, so check that store's return window before you buy.
