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 a 'good enough' 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 reduced driving enjoyment, creating a significant safety concern.
The first time you need to perform an emergency maneuver, such as swerving to avoid a child, animal, or another vehicle on the road, you will quickly understand the implications.
Excessive body roll, significant front lean on braking, and rear dip on acceleration are all effects of a shock absorber, or more appropriately named damper, that is not functioning correctly as it is out of its element or operating range.
You have effectively tied the dampers' hands behind their back, preventing them from controlling or dampening the movements of the suspension.
Belltech's parent company, KW automotive, is a world leader in shock absorber technology and is relied upon for their expertise in suspension tuning by some of the world's most demanding OEM and aftermarket companies, including the ACR Viper team at Chrysler, Mercedes AMG, Novitec Ferrari, and Hennessey Motorsports.
KW automotive engineers, in conjunction with Belltech engineers, have spent countless hours designing and tuning a completely new line of shock absorbers exclusively engineered for Belltech Sport Truck, SUV, and Muscle Car applications.
