The Bilstein B8 5100 Ride Height Adjustable shock (part number 24-317887) is a front shock for Ram 1500 and Ram 1500 Classic trucks with an OE coilover-style front suspension. It is a monotube shock with a 46mm digressive piston and a self-adjusting deflective disc valve setting. The damping is non-adjustable.
The body has multiple snap-ring grooves that let the spring seat sit at different positions. This allows leveling or front lift with the OE springs, from 0 to 3 inches depending on the application. The shock also increases wheel travel. It has a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance.
It mounts with a stem at the top and a clevis at the bottom. Before installing, verify the OE coilover-style front suspension, the mount style and the available ride height. This part cross-references Rancho RS77808 for the same application.
