Bilstein 4600 Front Shocks for 1987-1996 Ford F-250 4WD

Part Number(s): 24-016179

Summary: Bilstein B6 4600 shock absorbers are engineered as a direct fit upgrade to OE shock absorbers for stock height 1987-1996 Ford F-250 4WD trucks. Featuring a monotube design, these shocks provide consistent, fade-free performance by managing heat more effectively than traditional twin-tube designs. These shocks utilize a unique, velocity-sensitive, digressive piston to react to changing road conditions, ensuring a significant improvement in ride quality, handling, and comfort for light trucks and SUVs.

Features

• Monotube Design: Single-tube nitrogen gas charged construction provides consistent fade-free performance to ensure reliable damping under repeated impacts and extended use.
• Digressive Piston: A velocity-sensitive, digressive piston reacts to changing road conditions to ensure optimal performance and enhanced lane change stability.
• Deflective Disc Valving: Application-specific valving provides increased power reserves and service life to ensure safety and performance even when pulling trailers or transporting heavy loads.
