Product Details
Bilstein B6 Performance dampers are built as an OE-style performance upgrade for the 1953-1962 Chevrolet Corvette, rear position. The monotube construction helps maintain stable damping characteristics, while the tuned valving is matched to the vehicle application to improve handling and safety over worn factory dampers. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. If you are searching for a rear shock absorber for 1953-1962 Chevrolet Corvette models, part number 24-004930 provides a focused replacement option from Bilstein’s B6 Performance line.
Common Issues It Can Address
- Excessive rear-end bounce over bumps
- Reduced damping control from worn OE shocks
- Loose or unsettled handling in cornering
- Inconsistent ride response on classic Corvette suspension
- Loss of road control during braking or lane changes
Installation Notes
Compatible With 1953-1962 Chevrolet Corvette, rear. Verify mount style before installation: eye 16mm lower mount and stem upper mount. This shock is intended for use with the OE factory spring, so suspension modifications should be checked against the application before ordering. Confirm the rear position and compare the existing damper dimensions and mounting points to part number 24-004930.
Quality Assurance
Bilstein states that B6 Performance dampers are tested to meet or exceed OE standards. The B6 Performance line is built for application-specific fitment and consistent quality control, giving Chevrolet Corvette owners a performance-oriented replacement backed by Bilstein’s established damper engineering.
