If there's one danger in lowering your ride, it's the possibility of 'bottoming out". This is especially true when using aggressive lowering kits like Belltech's Flip Kits. The higher placement of the rear axle places it considerably closer to a vehicle's main frame rail. A sizeable bump on the road or a sudden acceleration can result in the grinding of the rear axle and frame rail.

One option is to modify the frame rail by "cutting" away a C-shaped portion to provide more upward room for the suspension. This will keep the rear axle from hitting the chassis frame but as a consequence, it will weaken the frame making it susceptible to sagging.

Belltech C-Notch Kits are super-strong frame reinforcements that attach to the modified frame making it more rigid. The heavy-duty materials and durable finish ensure long-lasting quality.

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.
