When lowering your Sport Truck or SUV, the shock absorbers are often the most overlooked component.
Many Sport Truck or SUV owners leave 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 a large safety concern.
The first time you need to perform an emergency maneuver, like swerving to avoid a child, animal, or another vehicle on the road, you will quickly understand the importance of effective shock absorbers.
Excessive body roll, significant 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 tied the damper's hands behind its back, not allowing it to control or dampen the movements of the suspension.
KW automotive, Belltech's parent company, is a leader in shock absorber technology and is relied upon for expertise in suspension tuning by 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 for Belltech Sport Truck, SUV, and Muscle Car applications.
