BILSTEIN B8 8112 ( ZoneControl® CR )
The Bilstein B8 8112 is the pinnacle of performance in 4WD suspension.
Designed for drivers who demand ultimate control, capability and comfort across all terrains. Built as a premium big bore shock, the B8 8112 pushes beyond conventional suspension design with advanced technology and heavy-duty construction to meet the needs of serious off-road enthusiasts.
Featuring Bilstein’s cutting-edge Zone Control CR technology, the B8 8112 integrates multiple damping zones within a single shock absorber. This ensures precise handling and stability on-road while delivering unbeatable performance and bottom-out control in extreme off-road conditions. Its large-diameter monotube design and robust construction allow for superior oil volume and heat dissipation, keeping performance consistent under punishing use.
Engineered specifically for lifted 4WDs, the Bilstein B8 8112 offers extended travel and maximum articulation, making it ideal for vehicles with larger tyres, increased ground clearance or additional accessories.
Whether you’re tackling rocky climbs, corrugated tracks, or high-speed desert trails, the B8 8112 ensures your suspension is as tough as the terrain ahead.
Trusted worldwide and backed by decades of German engineering, the Bilstein B8 8112 stands as the ultimate big bore shock upgrade for drivers who want nothing less than the best from their 4WD suspension system.
WAY AHEAD
ZoneControl® CR: Position sensitive damping with 3 compression zones and 2 rebound zones, controlled by 3 independent pistons:
- Compression (C): Provides superior bottom out control through a 2-stage, telescoping internal compression stop. This feature eliminates the need for an external hydraulic bump stop
- Rebound (R): Secondary rebound stop will dissipate spring energy and stabilize the suspension directly following a large compression event. The internal rebound stop will also eliminate harsh top-out events and the need for an external limit strap
Features & Benefits

What is ZoneControl® CR?
ZoneControl® CR delivers position sensitive damping with 3 compression zones and 2 rebound zones, controlled by 3 independent pistons. Three key internal features produce ZoneControl® CR: JCO System, Triple Piston Design, RCO System.
Jounce Cut Off (JCO)
The Jounce Cut Off (JCO) system is comprised of two components: the JCO secondary compression valve piston and the 2-stage telescoping compression stop. The JCO system provides bottom out control when the JCO secondary compression valve piston engages the 2-stage telescoping internal compression stop. This feature eliminates the need for an external hydraulic bump stop.
Triple Piston Design
ZoneControl® CR features a triple piston design for unparalleled comfort during every day driving conditions without sacrificing maximum control off-road. The 3 independent working pistons include: JCO (Jounce Cut Off) secondary compression valve piston, Main 60mm digressive piston, RCO (Rebound Cut Off) secondary rebound valve piston
Rebound Cut Off (RCO)
The Rebound Cut Off (RCO) system is comprised of two components: the RCO secondary rebound valve piston and the internal rebound stop. The RCO system effectively decelerates the spring when the RCO secondary rebound valve piston engages the internal rebound stop.
