Review on 🟨 Bilstein 24-184922 Rear Shock for Dodge Ram 4WD: Enhanced Performance in Vibrant Yellow by John Ortiz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good units: shocks, struts and suspension

I put them on all four corners of my 2001 Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 after installing Rancho adjustable shocks. The Rancho shocks had 5 damping settings ranging from aggressively harsh to heartbreaking when they were new. They eventually wore out after 100,000 miles (bushings were loose/very little cushioning) so I went with them. Now the ride is very planted and safe. The truck used to hit bumps with worn shock absorbers and it seemed blurry for a second, after that everything was fine. Now I stumble on the same bump and it never feels blurry, despite not being a Lexus Smoothus - it conveys bumps, but you always feel planted all over. The cushioning is a good compromise between performance and comfort on my 5300 pound truck. At just over $300 for all four, I'm pretty damn happy.

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
