Bilstein B8 5100 (Dual Steering Damper Kit)-Steering Damper Kit (53-264817)

Bilstein B8 5100 (Dual Steering Damper Kit)-Steering Damper Kit (53-264817)Bilstein B8 5100 (Dual Steering Damper Kit) is designed as a bolt on auxiliary kit for solid axle 4WD vehicles. This kit features 2 steering dampers offering improved steering isolation. The dual kit mounts both dampers inline and opposing each other, which greatly enhances the "on center" feel. The steering dampers, included in the kit, are a gas pressurized monotube design and will provide fully functional damping in a horizontal position. These

Bilstein B8 5100 (Dual Steering Damper Kit) is designed as a bolt on auxiliary kit for solid axle 4WD vehicles. This kit features 2 steering dampers offering improved steering isolation. The dual kit mounts both dampers inline and opposing each other, which greatly enhances the "on center" feel. The steering dampers, included in the kit, are a gas pressurized monotube design and will provide fully functional damping in a horizontal position. These steering dampers, by design, have the advantage of controlling even the slightest steering movements to reduce steering wheel shake. With Bilstein B8 5100 (Dual Steering Damper Kit), you will greatly improve the steering feedback and handling of your vehicle.

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.

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.
