The Bilstein B6 Sport Shock Absorber (35-139362) is designed for drivers who want a significant upgrade in handling and stability over their vehicle's factory suspension without sacrificing daily drivability. It is perfect for enthusiasts who engage in spirited fast-road driving, heavy towing, or those simply seeking a more planted feel, though it is important to note that this is a firmer-valving damper that will communicate more road feedback to the cabin than original equipment.

This shock absorber (35-139362) is intended specifically for the front-left position. While it is a direct-fit replacement for the factory component, it is highly recommended to replace shock absorbers in axle pairs (left and right) to ensure even handling characteristics. When installing, ensure all mounting hardware is torqued to the vehicle manufacturer's specifications. No specific maintenance is required, but it is advisable to inspect the shock body for signs of leaking fluid or damaged dust boots during routine oil changes to ensure long-term performance.
