Forester 2018 Subaru 4WD - Bilstein Rear B8 TerraSport Shock Absorber (1.5" Rear lift)

This Bilstein B8 TerraSport 24-344609 strut assembly for the Subaru Forester is an excellent suspension upgrade designed to improve on and off-road performance while providing additional lift height for better ground clearance. Built with advanced technology to provide superior damping characteristics and improved performance over a wide range of driving conditions. The TerraSport features gas-pressure construction, ensuring consistent performance by minimizing aeration and heat buildup, while enhancing durability. This delivers comfortable on-road driving and capable off-road handling, providing drivers with confidence-inspiring performance across a range of surfaces. 

Why TerraSport Struts / Shocks over a Lift Kit?

Both a TerraSport shock/strut and a lift kit will raise your vehicle. The TerraSport simply utilizes a longer body that adjusts where the spring seats rest.  This effectively pushes the OEM springs upward to provide the additional lift height. Most lift kits will use strut/coil spacers that mount above the struts. Both methods work well to provide additional tire clearance; the TerraSport will also improve handling and control.
