The Bilstein 24-197779 is a B6 4600 Series front shock for stock-height 1999-2016 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty 2WD trucks with the 7.3L, 6.0L, 6.4L or 6.7L Power Stroke. It is for owners keeping factory ride height who want more control and better handling without giving up a comfortable ride.
Fitment
Listed for 1999-2016 Ford Super Duty F-250 and F-350 2WD trucks, front position. The spec sheet lists the drive type as RWD, which is the same 2WD truck. By engine, that covers the 7.3L Power Stroke (1999-2003), the 6.0L (2003-2007), the 6.4L (2008-2010) and the first-generation 6.7L (2011-2016). This shock is built for stock height, a 0-inch lift, so it is not the right shock for a leveled or lifted front end. It is not a 4WD part either. If you are not sure which front end your truck has, verify by VIN or call us before you order. More parts for your truck are on our Power Stroke page.
Why this part
The 4600 Series is Bilstein's shock for trucks that stay at stock height. Bilstein says it is designed to help your truck reach its peak ride performance and handling while keeping the comfortable ride the brand is known for. According to Bilstein, a 4600-equipped truck has more control than one on conventional shocks, which helps keep what you are carrying secure, from your kids to your work equipment, mile after mile. Its patented design is meant to let the truck glide over any road surface while you stay in command. Bilstein valves the 4600 per vehicle for daily driving and trailer pulling, and calls these dampers the least expensive and most effective upgrade for extending a vehicle's service life.

Frequently asked questions
Will this work if I level the truck later?
It is built for stock height with a 0-inch lift. If you plan to level or lift the front, look at Bilstein's B8 5100 Series, which is valved for leveled and lifted trucks.
Does it fit a 4WD F-250 or F-350?
No. This shock is listed for 2WD (RWD) F-250 and F-350 Super Duty trucks only.
How many do I need?
Two for the front. Bilstein lists 2 per vehicle, and they are sold individually, so put two in your cart.
