A lifted Gladiator loaded for a week out leans on its dampers harder than the factory ones were built to handle. On washboard and long rocky climbs a stock shock heats up and fades, the front end floats, and the drive wears on you.
The BILSTEIN B8 8100 front passenger side shock has a 60mm piston and a 60mm remote reservoir with extra oil capacity to control heat. Its monotube design and velocity-sensitive digressive valving are tuned for this Gladiator application at 2-3in of lift, and it fits directly with no modification.
Install it at the front passenger corner and drive. The front end stays settled over rough surfaces for long distances.
