Product Details

B8 6112 Series Strut Assemblies by Bilstein®. Designed for the serious off-road adventure seeker, the all-new Bilstein 6112 Series is the ultimate suspension solution. The 6112 Series optimizes off-road and on-road capabilities with a 60mm digressive piston for increased damping control. This kit features an adjustable spring seat which allows vehicle leveling, larger tires, and increased ground clearance. Kit includes (2) shocks, (2) spring seats and (2) coil springs.

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 we’re 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.

Best Upgrade for My Truck
Perfect lift height for my needs. The truck handles better on rough roads and I can finally fit larger tires without any rubbing issues. The added 2" lift makes a big visual improvement in my opinion.

Blisten 5160 Toyota Tacoma Rear Shocks
CARiD delivered them pretty darn quick and they were easy to install with instructions and video link they provided. Ride really well and that extra little cylinder for dampening really helps vs normal one tube shocks. I was missing a package containing one of the top washers and rubber grommets but used one of my old sets seeing that my original shocks were also Blisten. Had not the time to contact them yet but I am sure they will make it good!

Front Shock 5100
Arrived on time, easy enough to install. Ride feels better than the old stock electric controlled shocks.

Bilstein 4600 Front Shocks Silverado
Typical Bilstein; which means excellent shocks. But be aware for this application these are actually "coil overs" which means that to replace the shocks you need to remove the springs. This is not a horrible project, but it is considerably more involved than simply replacing normal shocks. You will need to get a strut type spring compressor.

Great But No Dust Covers and Bottom Spring Seat Cushion
They perform very well but I'm not happy about not getting a new dust cover with these. I only received 1 zip tie for the brake hose mount when I needed two. I also had to reuse the old bottom spring seat pad on the new one. This would've received 5 stars from me if it wasn't for those things.

Hey! Pick these!
This was my first experience purchasing from both CARiD and this brand of shocks. But let me tell you..This entire experience was superb, the product arrive quite quickly and well packaged. -I’ve replaced the original shocks with these and there's a noticeable difference. I also have to say that I'm not a car expert but I installed it easily.
