Bilstein B8 5165 8.8in Travel Remote Reservoir - Stem/Eye 365/240

When you're building a custom off-road rig and need suspension that can handle serious terrain, the Bilstein B8 5165 remote reservoir shock absorber is a solid choice. This shock is built to give your light truck or SUV the performance you're looking for when you venture off the beaten path. It's designed to work with custom applications, giving you the flexibility to dial in your ride.

What sets this shock apart is its remote reservoir. This external tank holds extra shock oil, which helps dissipate heat more effectively. That means more consistent performance and less fade, even when you're pushing your vehicle hard in harsh off-road conditions. The 46mm monotube design also contributes to this fade-free performance, reacting quickly to changes in the surface with its self-adjusting valving to keep you in control. Plus, the unique 360-degree swivel banjo hose fitting makes for a clean and low-profile installation, which is always a plus on a custom build.

This shock absorber comes with 5/8 inch eyelets and hour glass bushings on both ends, ensuring a secure connection. The increased cooling capacity and wheel travel it offers are key to conquering tough off-road environments and maintaining durability for your custom vehicle.
