About Bilstein
Bilstein develops monotube dampers with application-specific valving for original-height and modified suspension systems. The B6 line is intended as a performance upgrade for vehicles retaining their factory springs and ride height, with dimensions and mounting selected for each verified chassis.
Related Parts
- No internal mount, spring, or opposite-side shock is linked because the companion parts must match the XC60 VIN, suspension option, and service condition.
FAQ
What is the 24-287487?It is one rear B6 Performance monotube shock for supported 2018-2022 Volvo XC60 models with standard non-air suspension.
Is this price for one shock or a pair?It is for one shock. Bilstein lists two shocks per vehicle, and axle dampers should be serviced in matched pairs.
Does it fit an XC60 with air suspension?No. The verified application requires standard suspension without air or active damping.
Does it lower the vehicle?No. It is designed for the factory spring and stock ride height.
What are the mounting styles?The upper mount is a stem and the lower mount is an eye.
Are a spring seat and dust boot included?No. Bilstein lists both the spring seat and boot as not included.
What should be checked before ordering?Confirm the VIN, suspension-option code, OE cross-reference, rear position, and absence of air or active suspension.
Is an alignment needed after installation?A rear shock change does not set alignment, but suspension geometry, tire wear, and ride height should be inspected after suspension service.
Installation Instructions
- Confirm the XC60 year, rear position, standard non-air suspension, factory spring, and Bilstein 24-287487 application before disassembly.
- Read the current Volvo and Bilstein procedures, support the vehicle safely, and unload the rear damper without allowing the suspension to overextend.
- Remove the original shock and inspect the upper mount, lower bushing, spring, bump stop, and surrounding hardware for wear or damage.
- Compare the stem, lower eye, compressed and extended dimensions, and supplied hardware before installing the new damper.
- Install shocks as a matched rear pair and torque all fasteners at the suspension position specified by Volvo service information.
- Check for leaks, noise, wiring or hose interference, and correct ride height, then recheck the hardware after the initial road test.
