Your cart is empty.When you think about lowering your Sport Truck or SUV, historically the most overlooked component is the shock absorbers, with many Sport Truck or SUV owners simply leaving the factory units installed as a "good enough" after thought. However, when you lower your Sport Truck or SUV, many of the components that you will use reduce the effective travel of the shock absorbers and can render your OEM shock absorbers virtually useless. This results in not only poor ride quality & reduced driving enjoyment, but 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 find out exactly what we mean. Excessive body roll and an incredible amount of front lean on braking, and rear dip on acceleration are all effects of a shock absorber (or more appropriately named damper) that is not working correctly as it is out of its element or operating range. You have effectively tied the dampers hands behind its back, not enabling it to do its job and control or dampen 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 such as 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 complete new line of shock absorbers exclusively engineered for Belltech Sport Truck, SUV & Muscle Car applications.

I used these shocks together with the belltech 2”/3” drop springs. It made a huge improvement with the way the vehicle handles. It feels planted to the road. The Installation instructions that come with the shocks are very detailed and easy to read. If you are going to install these yourself make sure you have the right tools. Overall I’m very satisfied with the purchase!

I got these for my 07 TBSS AWD. They fit perfectly. They arrived quickly and well packed. The ride is firm and planted. A lot less of that jerky body roll these trucks are known for. It also feel well planted over mid turn bumps. I'm using them at 1.5 inch drop in the front (a big spacer and a small spacer) and I have eibach drop springs in the back. Well worth the price.

READ the Q&A below! These appear to be for a vehicle that is lowered 3 inches!
