Questions and answers of the customers

owner of a 2002 dodge ram 1500 why should I go with bilstein 4600 over stock
-
0 votesQ owner of a 2002 dodge ram 1500 why should I go with bilstein 4600 over stockA Monotube design: The 4600s use a gas-pressurized monotube, which reacts faster and resists fade far better than the twin-tube shocks found in most OEM replacements. More consistent damping: Less wallow, less bounce after bumps, and better handling during sudden changes in direction or lane changes. The 4600s are valved specifically for trucks—designed to support towing and payload better than stock shocks without being too stiff when unloaded. Bilstein 4600s often last 2–3× longer than stock replacements, even with regular towing or off-road use.
