Bilstein B6 Right-Hand Front Strut for BMW E46 4WD models 325xi 330xi 330xd

Give your four-wheel-drive E46 the control it deserves with this genuine Bilstein B6 gas-charged right front damper. Part number 22-242600 is a direct bolt-on OSF unit designed for BMW 3 Series E46 xi and xd applications. Expect tighter body control, crisp steering feel and real-world composure on British roads without sacrificing everyday comfort.

At MJ Modifications we have installed these B6 units on multiple E46 AWD builds and customer feedback is consistently positive: flatter cornering, improved lane stability and a more planted, confidence-inspiring drive compared with tired factory shocks.
