When lowering your Sport Truck or SUV, the shock absorbers are often the most overlooked component, with many owners simply leaving the factory units installed as an afterthought.
However, lowering your Sport Truck or SUV can reduce the effective travel of the shock absorbers, rendering your OEM shock absorbers virtually useless.
This results in poor ride quality and a significant safety concern.
The first time you need to perform an emergency maneuver, like swerving to avoid a child, animal, or another vehicle, you will quickly understand the implications.
Excessive body roll, front lean on braking, and rear dip on acceleration are all effects of a shock absorber that is not functioning correctly due to being out of its operating range.
You have effectively restricted the dampers, preventing them from controlling or dampening the movements of the suspension.
KW automotive, Belltech's parent company, is a leader in shock absorber technology and is relied upon for their expertise in suspension tuning by some of the most demanding OEM and aftermarket companies, including the ACR Viper team at Chrysler, Mercedes AMG, Novitec Ferrari, and Hennessey Motorsports.
Engineers from KW automotive and Belltech have spent countless hours designing and tuning a new line of shock absorbers exclusively engineered for Belltech Sport Truck, SUV, and Muscle Car applications.
