Best shock ever made! Car feel very stable on sharp turns.

[@mercedesbenzs600bash]

What kinda car do you have????

[@lashlarue7924]

This is why “KYB” stands for, “Keep Your Bilsteins”.

[@kentuckycowboy2]

Nice to see the process .

[@1PITIFULDUDE]

I had to come here to finally hear someone pronounce Bilstein correctly.

[@jubenehuang3971]

Can I ask do you have a distributor in Philippines? And how is the warranty? For the shocks?

[@futuremotoringdetailcaraud7193]

what will work for a smooth ride for a 2010 chevy tahoe LS

[@hakangurdol]

I have a pair of rear shocks b4 for my 2006 Fiat Stilo, now i have more stablize power on corners. I will change the fronts.

[@notoriousortega]

You need a real car. Sorry to be rude but I am honest.

@@notoriousortega hush. It's his baby. Not everyone wants money pits.

Hi, can you tell me, i bough new front shock absorbers, they are filled with gas and oil...after one month, and about 300 km only, i have one issue with one of shocks....when car is parked, more than 30 min for example, and i come and press car down with hands where is suspicious shock, first 1-2 moves up and down are so easy without resistance...and than you can feel when shock becomes hard like it should be allways, later when driving is good but every time after pause of min 30 min shock seems like loosing power and than first few bumps is soft and than becomes hard...what is problem?

[@AdamAus85]

Bought a pair of Bilstein B4s (for E39 BMW 528i) here in Australia and it's odd that the word Germany is printed on some labels but nowhere does it actually say where the shocks were made. Would be interesting to know.

[@RulfusTheBear]

how do the shocks perform?

[@GrymmEvil]

I know that this is 6 years old, but mine have a bunch of German on them, but say Made in Mexico.

[@AdamAus85]

@@GrymmEvil I've said read that Bilstein made shocks all over the joint. No doubt heaps in China too. J just want companies to be front up with where their shit is made. I know have an e39 525i m sport and went with factory replacements from Sachs. Actually says Made in Germany on them.

[@AdamAus85]

@@RulfusTheBear oops, I'm late. They were okay, bit a bit firmer over stock.

[@vocalone23]

@@GrymmEvil they say Made in Mexico just as Gabriel Ultras are Made in Mexico. all good shocks though

I use to work for the elevator company in Arlington Texas

[@Colt_RazorVolt]

a few months ago, I worked at Bilstein (unpaid though maybe it was for paying for my classes I guess) through a program called project life from butler tech for a month or so I absolutely love working at the place considering possibly getting an actual job there in future loved putting snap rings on and making those flanges also the logistics part most favorite jobsite out of the 4 at project life butler Tech program. who runs the youtube channel?

[@thebluedan]

Please send to Brazil... the roads are horrible

[@notoriousortega]

I have a Toyota Tacoma with 52,000 miles, and I only drive on the high way and the rear shocks are going bad. Am wondering why?

[@QQuetzalcoatl1982]

woow, im sold. but im pretty sure what sets u apart is your product, hardworking people you can find anywhere for the right amont of money. still this video is very good.

[@davidlewis9414]

[@naderfawzy5958]

[@michaelcosyngroup886]

Best shocks ever. It drives me nuts when people mispronounce the name as BilSTEEN. *UGH*

[@JohnnyGification]

So these are actually made in the states, not in Germany? Interesting.

[@bilsteinUS]

Hi Johnny - We have a manufacturing facility in Germany and in the United States. The product is of identical quality. We import some applications from Germany (a lot of the European car applications), while we produce a lot of parts for vehicles that are available domestically here in the United States.

[@makaroka]

+JohnnyGification from steel made in China. I can confirm the quality is nowhere near like it used to be.

[@notoriousortega]

[@MrTherandomvidsguy]

@@makaroka just because it's made in China don't mean it's shit Jesus Christ.

[@makaroka]

@@MrTherandomvidsguy I have qualification in Metallurgy. Chinese steel known to be absolute rubbish, low quality, very high proportion of them contain Bainite. High proportion does not mean they are all bad, there are a very few, manufacturing good martensite carbon steel, but I had two of my B6 Bilsten heads broke off due to structural errors, both were manufactured from Chinese made steel material. The proof of the pudding: you eat it.

[@josephmorales3745]

I just had Bilstein 4600 shocks installed on my black jeep, but the yellow shocks with a blue dust boot looks terrible on my jeep. Make all shocks black Please.

[@aristotelisvenieratos6109]

Are you happy with the ride?

[@ChrisDIYerOklahoma]

I cringe when I hear someone pronounce Bilstein as "BILL STEEN". Or even worse, "BILL STIN". Love the 5100 series shocks/struts.

[@FEENoneGraff]

Anyone here from quad ricers?
