Description
Bilstein SS4 Series shock absorbers are designed specifically for custom street rod applications that require unique lengths and valve settings for the proper chassis setup. SS4 Series shock absorbers feature a 36mm piston, smooth body, 5/8 inch polyurethane bushing mounts and various lengths and valve settings to choose from. SS4 Series shock absorbers provide a wide range of options to support any custom street rod application need.
Notes:
- It’s recommended to replace shock or strut in pairs (passenger and driver side at the same time)
Features:
- Monotube gas pressure construction
- Deflective disc valving and dropped solid axle specific mounts
- High quality triple-plate chrome finish
- Can be mounted in any direction
- High performance polyurethane bushings
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.
Mono-tube Upside-Down Technology. The original and best: The original mono-tube gas pressure shock absorbers bore the BILSTEIN name, and we’re still responsible for producing the best there is. Bilstein’s mono-tube technology is the number-one choice in motorsports and series-production sports cars: no other type gives engineers the same freedom to choose the perfect installation location or position (e.g. Upside-Down technology).
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.
