The Bilstein B4 Gas Shock Absorber (19-019741) is the ideal suspension component for daily drivers and enthusiasts seeking to restore their vehicle's original ride quality and handling performance. Designed as a direct-fit replacement for factory dampers, these shocks use advanced gas twin-tube technology to provide superior control, stability, and comfort. While they are an excellent choice for a suspension refresh, it is important to note that these units are sold individually, and replacing them in pairs is necessary to ensure balanced handling and even tire wear.

It is not strictly necessary if your current springs are in good condition, but inspecting them for cracks or sagging while the suspension is disassembled is highly recommended.
No, the B4 series is a non-adjustable, direct-fit replacement designed for street comfort.
The B4 is designed for standard height or mild lowering (up to 30mm). For aggressive lowering kits, look toward Bilstein B8 sport dampers.
While replacing rear shocks may not always throw off alignment as much as front struts, it is always best practice to have a professional check the alignment after any suspension work.
No, the 19-019741 is sold as an individual unit. You must order two to complete a full rear axle refresh.
Verify that the mounting hardware is tightened to the correct torque specs and check that all other suspension bushings were not damaged during the shock replacement.
Ensure that the top mount hardware is fully seated and that the shock is not loose in its mountings.
Ensure that both rear springs are seated correctly in their perches and that both shocks were installed as a pair.
The Bilstein B4 (19-019741) is a rear-fitment damper. To ensure proper vehicle safety and performance, always replace shock absorbers in pairs (left and right). Attempting to mix a new B4 with an aged or worn damper will lead to uneven suspension geometry and potentially dangerous handling characteristics.
