Gas Pressure Technology. Over time, the mono-tube gas pressure technology developed by BILSTEIN has established itself as a standard in automotive construction. This technology involves keeping the oil in the absorber under pressure, which prevents it from foaming when temperatures and loads are increasing. As a result, full damping power is retained even when the system is placed under extreme stress, a feature that can be observed in the self-lowering piston.

Mono-tube Upside-Down Technology. The original and best: The original mono-tube gas pressure shock absorbers bore the BILSTEIN name, and were still responsible for producing the best there is. BILSTEIN’s mono-tube technology is the number-one choice in motorsports and series-production sports cars: no other type gives engineers the same freedom to choose the perfect installation location or position (e.g. Upside-Down technology).

Road-Tested by Bilstein. To achieve that celebrated BILSTEIN driving experience, BILSTEIN engineers rely on not only technology that is truly at the cutting edge, but also something that has withstood the test of time: how it feels to the driver. As a result, all of Bilstein high-performance absorbers, as well as Bilstein sport suspensions and threaded ride height adjustable kits, undergo a rigorous testing programme. On the Nürburgring and in Bilstein own test centre at the Papenburg test track, Bilstein drivers test how balanced the driving characteristics of various vehicles are in a variety of different driving situations. Only when they have passed this programme of tests with distinction are they allowed to bear the BILSTEIN name. This way, Bilstein can guarantee that celebrated BILSTEIN driving experience.

In 1954, Bilstein® was the first to realize the potential offered by an idea of Prof. Bourcier de Carbon, a French researcher in the field of vibrations. The aim was to eliminate the physical disadvantages of the conventional telescopic shock absorbers, whilst at the same time making the dampers lighter and able to be fitted in any position. The name Bilstein has for many decades been closely associated with high tech in the field of suspension design, driving comfort and safety. In order to expand this position in the future, Bilstein became a division of ThyssenKrupp Technologies AG in 1988, and a wholly-owned subsidiary in 2005. The partnership and co-operation within the group will enable the company to continue to inspire with innovations in the traditional Bilstein way.

Have owned and driven countless trucks from fords, dodges, and Chevrolet. You won't get a better ride than with this brand. Its like riding a boat on calm water.. If you want to extend the life on everything else that goes hand in hand look no further. Bilstein knows what they're doing. Just might make you rethink the captains chair or butt pillow.

Bilstein Shocks
I am very pleased thus far with the Bilstein Shocks that I ordered. They are the quality that I expected and the yellow paint really shows off the shocks!

The top center bolt will rotate, so you must have a small wrench to hold it, while using another wrench to screw down the bolt. Its just tedious. The written directions are worthless, so make sure you install the rubber washers with the elevated tops toward one another thru the hole for the center bolt. Good luck, they ride great.

Easy install using OEM bolt & screws for reattachment.

Shocks fit well & easy to install. The top (needle type) bolt is pretty difficult to install as pin turns unless a wrench or vise grips are used to hold it will tightening the bolt at the same time. Not sure there is any way to avoid this.

I researched many forums and found out that people that had purchased these shocks with the intent to improve stock equipment, were not disappointed. I'm happy to say that in my case, everything I read was true.
