What is the benefit of the remote reservoir on this shock?

The remote reservoir holds extra shock oil, which increases cooling capacity. This helps prevent the shock from overheating and fading during hard use, and it also allows for more wheel travel.

How does the monotube design help?

A monotube design separates the oil and gas, which helps maintain consistent damping performance. This means you get fade-free operation even under demanding conditions.

Does this shock absorber come with all the necessary mounting hardware?

This shock absorber includes a unique 360-degree swivel banjo hose fitting and a billet reservoir mount where applicable for a clean installation. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions for a complete list of included hardware.

About this part

Product Details

If you're looking to get more out of your lifted 2015-2022 Chevrolet Colorado off-road, this Bilstein 5160 Series rear shock absorber is a solid option. This shock is built to handle tougher terrain by incorporating a remote reservoir, which gives it more oil capacity. That extra oil helps keep the shock cooler, especially during extended use, and allows for increased wheel travel. This means you get more consistent performance and better control when you're tackling rough trails.

The monotube design is a key part of how these shocks work. It helps ensure that the damping stays consistent, even when the shock heats up, so you don't experience fade. Bilstein tunes the digressive valving specifically for the Colorado, so it reacts quickly to changes in the road or trail surface, giving you improved control. The unique 360-degree swivel banjo fitting on the hose and the billet reservoir mount make for a clean installation that tucks away nicely.
