When lowering your vehicle, the ride height is reduced and this means that the up and down travel of your suspensions will be reduced. If using your stock shock absorbers, this can result in a stiff ride because the shocks are not given enough space to "play". This lessens the shock's capacity to absorb and dissipate, meaning you feel each and every bump on the road.

As a remedy, you can install a custom shock with a shorter travel like the Belltech Nitro Drop 2 Shock Absorber or the Belltech Street Performance Shock Absorber.

But, if you want to retain your stock shock absorber, then you can use Belltech Shock Extensions to relocate the lower end of your shock absorber. This gives the stock shock more up and down travel space allowing it to function better while correcting the shock's installation angle. These extensions are made from heavy-duty steel and are powder-coated for a rust-proof finish.

Belltech has engineered many lowering innovations in suspensions that lower the ride height of sport trucks, muscle cars, large pickups, and SUVs. Since developing the drop spindle back in the 80s, Belltech has been cranking out innovative products that kept blowing the minds of low riders. Belltech became known for state of the art stock suspension replacements that not only perform better but drops a vehicle ride height.

The American vehicle customization market was never the same again.

Through the years, Belltech has consistently produced high-quality products that serve a demanding niche of racers and custom builders. The company grew from its simple roots to a large 75,000 SQM facility where Belltech assembled the finest research and development team focused on developing new products and refining existing ones.

Belltech's merger with the German company KW Suspensions - one of the top manufacturers of racing suspensions - infused more engineering innovations because of the latter's considerable experience in tuning and refinement of premium vehicles and racing cars.

Belltech now offers a complete suite of lowering, leveling, lifting, and alignment kits for almost any 4 wheeled vehicle. From classics like the Chevrolet C10 pickups and the Ford F-100 to newer models like GM Silverado and Ford F-150, Belltech has all the components you need for a successful and safe custom suspension build.
