Bilstein 25-275148 Suspension Shock Absorber - Rear Right

Bilstein B8 5160 Rear Right Shock

The Bilstein B8 5160 remote reservoir shock absorber is a direct-fit suspension upgrade for lifted Toyota Land Cruiser applications. Built for the rear right position, part number 25-275148 adds cooling capacity and wheel travel for more controlled performance on rough roads and off-road terrain.

Key Features

• Direct-fit rear right shock absorber for select Toyota Land Cruiser models
• Remote reservoir design increases cooling capacity and wheel travel
• Monotube internal design for consistent fade-resistant damping
• Velocity-sensitive digressive valving tuned for the application
• 360-degree swivel banjo hose fitting for a low-profile reservoir hose layout
• 46mm body diameter with zinc-plated finish
• Black bellows boot included
• Billet reservoir clamp included

Product Details

Bilstein B8 5160 shocks are part of the B8 5160 product line, a remote reservoir series developed for lifted trucks and SUVs that need more thermal capacity and suspension control than a standard shock absorber. This rear right unit uses a smooth-body monotube construction with a 46mm body diameter, stem upper mount, and 19.1mm eye lower mount. The extended length is 23.72 inches and the collapsed length is 14.50 inches, making it a fitment-specific solution for the listed Toyota Land Cruiser applications. Part number 25-275148 is engineered for stable damping response during repeated suspension movement.

Compatible With 2006-2007 Toyota Land Cruiser, rear right, without Active Height Control Suspension. Compatible With 1998-2005 Toyota Land Cruiser, rear right, with 0-2 inch rear lift. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues This Shock Can Address

• Excessive rear suspension bounce on lifted Land Cruiser setups
• Heat buildup that can reduce shock performance on rough roads
• Reduced wheel travel from a standard-length shock absorber
• Inconsistent damping during repeated off-road use
• Loose rear-end control over washboard, ruts, and uneven pavement

Installation Notes

Verify rear right fitment before installation, especially on 2006-2007 Toyota Land Cruiser models without Active Height Control Suspension and 1998-2005 Land Cruiser vehicles with 0-2 inch rear lift. Confirm the collapsed and extended lengths match the suspension travel requirements of the vehicle. The remote reservoir hose and swivel banjo fitting should be routed to avoid contact with moving suspension components, exhaust heat, and sharp edges.

Quality Assurance

Bilstein B8 5160 shocks use a monotube design and application-specific digressive valving to maintain consistent damping performance. The zinc-plated finish, included reservoir clamp, and remote reservoir construction support durability in demanding suspension environments.
