Bilstein 24-029056 B6 4600 Series Rear Shock — Chevrolet Silverado 1500 & GMC Sierra 1500 (1999–2007)

Bilstein 24-029056 B6 4600 Series Rear Shock Absorber — Chevrolet Silverado 1500 & GMC Sierra 1500 (1999–2007)

Direct-fit OE upgrade rear shock for 1999–2007 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 at stock height. Fits 2WD and 4WD. Not for HD, Quadrasteer, or ZX3 Electronic Suspension models. 46mm monotube design. Made in the USA.

Why Choose the Bilstein B6 4600 Rear Shock for Your Silverado or Sierra 1500?

The Bilstein 24-029056 B6 4600 Series Rear Shock Absorber is a direct-fit OE upgrade for the GMT800 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 — one of the most popular and enduring full-size truck platforms ever built. Covering 1999 through the 2007 Classic model year, this shock fits the full run of the GMT800 1500-series in both 2WD and 4WD configurations.

Whether your Silverado or Sierra is a daily driver, a weekend work truck, a Z71 trail rig, or a high-mileage commuter, the 4600 series restores and improves rear suspension performance across the board — better rear stability under load, more settled highway composure, improved traction, and a more confident, controlled ride compared to worn or generic OE replacement shocks.
