Driving Behavior Optimization By Applying Upside Down Shock Absorbers - Does Reversing Bring An Improvement? The targeted improvement of the driving dynamics and performance of a vehicle is usually achieved by replacing standard dampers with specially optimized high-performance dampers. BILSTEIN offers with the B6 and the derived B8, which is specially designed for lowering, offers two replacement dampers that go far beyond universal applications. The application of upside-down technology in these powerful monotube dampers significantly improves steering accuracy.
Upside down shock absorbers
The BILSTEIN B6 high-performance shock absorbers are a technologically advanced product that far exceeds the requirements of car manufacturers. The increased damping performance brings advantages for a wide range of applications and makes the B6 shock absorber series, which is available in both active and passive variants, the ideal companion for passenger cars, SUVs, vans or off-road vehicles. The BILSTEIN are new B6 Camper / Advanced for RVs. Whether sporty driving, driving with a trailer, with a higher load, on bad roads or under high stress: Wherever it makes technical sense, BILSTEIN replacement shock absorbers optimize the driving experience considerably.
Advantages of upside-down technology!
With the B6 dampers, the piston rod is located at the lower end, which enables significantly higher absorption and transfer of cornering forces. This leads to a significant increase in steering accuracy, which not only benefits sports drivers, but also increases everyday driving comfort and safety. Due to the monotube construction with a large working piston, the shock absorbers are particularly powerful.
How the inverted dampers work!
The B6 and B8 models use the standard top mounts as standard, whereby the vehicle height remains unchanged due to the position of the spring plate and the length of the housing. The unique upside-down construction with an integrated pressure stop guarantees identical compression travel and block dimensions. This means that for these components according to § 19.3 StVZO neither a general operating license (ABE) another Teilegutachten are needed.
"The monotube upside-down technology of the B6 and B8 high-performance shock absorbers improves driving dynamics considerably. This construction is offered for vehicles where a significant benefit can be achieved through this technology", explains Jan Heierhoff from technical support at BILSTEIN. The high-performance shock absorbers from BILSTEIN are always an improvement over the standard components and significantly increase the performance of the vehicle in all areas.
Of course, that wasn't the end of it!
