Product Details

The Bilstein B8 5160 line is focused on lifted light trucks and SUVs that see rough pavement, washboard roads, and off-road use. This shock absorber uses a smooth-body monotube construction with a remote reservoir to help manage heat during extended driving, while the digressive valve settings are matched to the specific application for controlled rear suspension response. Part number 25-311341 measures 13.44 inches collapsed, 21.68 inches extended, and provides 8.24 inches of stroke.

Compatible With 2005-2021 Nissan Frontier, rear, and 2009-2012 Suzuki Equator, rear. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. Bilstein B8 5160 25-311341 is a fitment-specific rear shock solution for drivers looking to maintain suspension control on a lifted Nissan Frontier or Suzuki Equator.

Common Uses

• Rear suspension control on lifted Nissan Frontier and Suzuki Equator trucks
• Heat management during repeated off-road or rough-road driving
• Reduction of shock fade from extended suspension cycling
• Improved rear axle stability on vehicles with 0-1 inch of rear lift
• Replacement for worn rear shocks on compatible light trucks
