Bilstein 33-304854 Suspension Shock Absorber - Rear

Overview

Bilstein B8 5100 shock absorber 33-304854 is a direct-fit suspension upgrade for lifted applications. It uses a monotube internal design and a velocity-sensitive digressive piston to maintain consistent damping as road conditions change.

Compatible With 2020-2026 Jeep Gladiator, rear, for vehicles with 0-1 inch rear lift. The B8 5100 line is tuned for specific applications to deliver controlled ride quality, handling, and comfort.

Key Features

• Monotube construction for consistent fade-resistant performance.
• Velocity-sensitive digressive piston reacts to changing road inputs.
• Non-adjustable damping for a fixed suspension response.
• Smooth-body, non-coilover design with zinc-plated finish.
• Black bellows boot included for added protection.
• Eye-to-eye mounting with 14.1 mm upper and lower mounts.

Detailed Description

Bilstein 33-304854 is part of the B8 5100 series, a product line built for lifted trucks and SUVs that need application-specific shock tuning. This shock absorber is engineered as a direct fit solution and is configured with a 46 mm body diameter, 17.22-inch collapsed length, and 25.87-inch extended length. For Jeep Gladiator owners, it matches rear applications with 0-1 inch rear lift and supports controlled suspension movement without adjustable settings.

If you are replacing a worn Jeep Gladiator rear shock or upgrading a lifted suspension setup, part number 33-304854 provides a fitment-specific option that aligns with the vehicle's rear suspension geometry. This part cross-references Rancho RS77069 for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Replacing a worn rear suspension shock absorber.
• Restoring ride control after a mild rear lift.
• Reducing excess bounce and body motion.
• Improving handling response on lifted suspension setups.
• Addressing inconsistent damping from an aging shock.

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2020-2026 Jeep Gladiator, rear. Confirm that the vehicle has 0-1 inch rear lift before installation. Verify eye-to-eye mounting and compare the collapsed and extended lengths to the original shock absorber before final assembly.
