Bilstein 24-188296 Suspension Shock Absorber - Front
Bilstein B6 4600 Front Shock Absorber
The Bilstein B6 4600 shock absorber is a direct-fit upgrade for stock-height light trucks and SUVs, including Land Rover Discovery, Defender 90, Defender 110, and Range Rover applications. Part number 24-188296 is built with a monotube internal design and a velocity-sensitive digressive piston to deliver consistent damping as road conditions change.
The B6 4600 series is tuned for each specific application, helping improve ride control, handling response, and comfort without changing the vehicle’s stock ride height. This Bilstein shock absorber is a practical choice for front suspension service on Land Rover models that need more controlled performance than a worn OE-style replacement.
Key Features
- Direct-fit front suspension shock absorber for stock-height vehicles
- Monotube internal design for consistent fade-resistant performance
- Velocity-sensitive digressive piston reacts to changing road inputs
- Non-adjustable damping for straightforward OE-style operation
- Yellow paint finish with yellow straight boot included
- Stem upper mount and stem lower mount configuration
- No reservoir design
- Bilstein B6 4600 series tuning for application-specific performance
Detailed Description
Bilstein 24-188296 is engineered for front suspension use on select Land Rover vehicles, including 1994-1999 Land Rover Discovery front, 1997 and 1994-1995 Land Rover Defender 90 front, 1993 Land Rover Defender 110 front, and multiple Range Rover front applications from 1970-1974, 1987-1989, 1990-1992, 1993-1994, and 1995. The B6 4600 line focuses on controlled damping for stock-height trucks and SUVs, making it a strong service replacement when the goal is better road feel and stability without altering suspension geometry.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Excessive bouncing after bumps or dips
- Loose or unsettled front-end handling
- Reduced ride control from worn shock absorbers
- Harsh or inconsistent damping over changing road surfaces
- Front suspension performance loss on stock-height Land Rover Discovery and Range Rover models
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify front-position fitment before installation. This shock uses stem upper and lower mounts, so confirm the mounting style matches the vehicle’s original hardware and suspension layout. Because the B6 4600 is tuned for specific applications, it should be installed on the listed Land Rover models and years only.
Quality Assurance
Bilstein designs the B6 4600 series as an application-specific upgrade with monotube construction and digressive valving for consistent performance. Part number 24-188296 is built to support front suspension service on the confirmed Land Rover fitments listed above.
