Bilstein B8 5160 Rear Driver-Side Remote-Reservoir Shock for 0–2.5 in Lift for 3rd-Gen 4Runner (1996–2002)

A monotube high-pressure gas design forms the core of this shock absorber, delivering fade-resistant performance and consistent damping under load. The addition of a remote reservoir increases fluid capacity, improving thermal efficiency and maintaining performance during extended off-road use.

A remote reservoir is connected through a durable hose featuring a 360-degree swivel banjo fitting, allowing flexible routing and a clean installation. A billet reservoir mount provides secure placement while maintaining a low-profile appearance within the suspension system.

Velocity-sensitive digressive valving adapts to changing terrain inputs, offering controlled damping across both low-speed articulation and high-speed impacts. Increased wheel travel and improved heat dissipation enhance traction, stability, and response.

Designed as a direct-fit upgrade, this shock integrates with factory mounting points on the rear driver side. The remote reservoir requires proper mounting using the included bracket system to ensure secure placement and optimal performance.

Engineered for harsh environments, the shock resists performance fade caused by heat buildup and repeated cycling. High-quality materials and construction ensure long-term reliability in demanding off-road conditions.
