Do these shocks require new springs?

No, these Bilstein B6 dampers are designed to be used with your vehicle's original factory springs. This makes them a straightforward performance upgrade without the need for additional suspension components.

What is the benefit of the monotube design?

The monotube design allows for a larger piston and more oil capacity compared to twin-tube shocks. This leads to better heat dissipation and more consistent damping performance, especially under demanding driving conditions.

Are these shocks suitable for all Mercedes ML and GLE models?

These shocks are specifically designed for certain model years of the Mercedes-Benz ML (2012-2015) and GLE (2016-2018) that do NOT have air suspension. Always check the detailed fitment list to confirm compatibility with your specific vehicle.

About this part

Product Details

The monotube design in these Bilstein B6 dampers means they use a larger piston and more oil than typical twin-tube shocks. This setup helps them manage heat better, which is key for consistent damping performance, especially when you're pushing your vehicle a bit harder. They're built to work with your vehicle's original factory springs, so you get an improved ride and better handling without needing to swap out your springs.

These shocks are specifically valved for each application, aiming to bring out the best in your Mercedes ML or GLE's handling. Whether you're navigating daily commutes or facing more demanding driving situations, you can expect a noticeable improvement in grip and lane stability. This means a safer and more confident driving experience, all while maintaining the quality Bilstein is known for.

This particular shock absorber is designed for a range of Mercedes models, including the ML350 from 2012-2015 and the GLE350 from 2016-2018, provided they do not have air suspension. It's a solid option for bringing back that responsive feel to your suspension.
