Bilstein B8 Performance Plus DampTronic Rear Shock Absorber 26-118284 | Porsche 911 991.1 / 996 / 997 PASM Only Lowered / Sport Suspension Only Sold Each
The Bilstein B8 Performance Plus DampTronic rear shock absorber, part number 26-118284, is the rear damper for a PASM-equipped 911 that has also been lowered. A monotube gas-pressure damper with a shortened body, built to work with the factory electronically adjustable suspension.
Two requirements: PASM, and lowering springs or sport suspension. Coverage spans the 991.1, 996 and 997. The DampTronic side means the factory drive modes and in-dash controls keep working with no reprogramming. The B8 side means the shortened body is matched to a lowered ride height — on factory-height springs it runs out of travel, rides harshly and wears out early. A stock-height PASM car needs the B6 DampTronic (26-118260) instead.
Sold individually. Two required per axle.
Key Benefits:
- Shortened monotube body matched to a lowered ride height
- Fully compatible with the factory PASM system — no reprogramming
- Drive modes and in-dash suspension controls continue to function
- Firmer valving for lowering springs and stiffer anti-roll bars
- Controls the reduced travel a lowered car actually has
- Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturer defects
Compatible Vehicles:
- Porsche 911 991.1
- Porsche 911 996
- Porsche 911 997
Note: Rear position. DampTronic — requires a car fitted with PASM. Also requires lowering springs or factory sport suspension. Sold each — order two for a complete axle.
