The B8 5100 line focuses on ride height adjustment through multiple snap-ring grooves in the shock body, allowing the spring seat to be positioned for leveling and front lift without changing to a different spring package. The monotube construction and 46mm piston are used to improve wheel travel and handling response while maintaining consistent damping characteristics. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks \u0026amp; Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible With 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier, front; 2005-2015 Nissan Xterra, front; and 2009-2012 Suzuki Equator, front. The Bilstein B8 5100 line is a practical choice when the goal is to level the vehicle, correct front rake, or restore controlled suspension movement after a lift-related change. Part number 24-187053 is also a useful reference when searching for a front shock for Nissan Frontier or Nissan Xterra coilover applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCorrecting front-end rake on a Nissan Frontier or Nissan Xterra\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetting front ride height with OE springs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacing a worn front coilover-style shock absorber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproving wheel travel and steering response on lifted front suspension setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestoring consistent front suspension control on daily-driven trucks and SUVs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVerify front suspension configuration before ordering, since this shock is for OE coilover-style front applications only. Set the snap-ring groove position according to the desired ride height and the vehicle-specific lift range listed for the application. Confirm collapsed and extended length, upper stem mount, and lower 14mm eye mount against the original shock before installation. Professional installation and a post-install alignment are recommended after any front ride-height change.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eBilstein B8 5100 shocks use a monotube design with zinc-plated construction and application-specific valving for consistent performance in front suspension service. Part number 24-187053 is engineered for the listed Nissan Frontier, Nissan Xterra, and Suzuki Equator fitments and is backed by Bilstein product engineering standards.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bilstein","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52705295859893,"sku":"BBGL-24-187053","price":206.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/1442\/1173\/files\/B5_24187053_Fro.jpg?v=1781417031","url":"https:\/\/www.partcatalog.com\/products\/bilstein-24-187053-suspension-shock-absorber-front","provider":"PartCatalog","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
