When it comes to lowering your Sport Truck or SUV, the shock absorbers are often the unsung heroes. A lot of folks just stick with the factory units, thinking they’re “good enough.” But trust me, if you’re serious about your ride, you’ll want to pay attention to those dampers. Lowering your vehicle changes the game, and if you don’t upgrade your shocks, you’ll quickly find out that the OEM parts just can’t keep up.
Picture this: you’re cruising down the road, and suddenly you need to swerve to avoid something unexpected—a kid on a bike, a deer, or just a careless driver. That’s when you realize that those factory shocks aren’t cutting it anymore. You’ll feel excessive body roll, a front end that dives when you brake, and the rear dipping like it’s got a mind of its own when you hit the gas. It’s like tying your dampers’ hands behind their back and expecting them to do their job. Not gonna happen.
That’s where Belltech comes in. Their parent company, KW Automotive, is a big player in shock absorber technology, trusted by some of the toughest OEMs and aftermarket brands out there—think Chrysler’s ACR Viper team, Mercedes AMG, and Novitec Ferrari. These guys know suspension tuning inside and out.
After countless hours of design and testing, Belltech and KW engineers have crafted a new line of shock absorbers specifically for Sport Trucks. Let me introduce you to the Belltech Street Performance Shock Absorbers. These beauties are all about tuning the low-speed compression characteristics, which means they’re designed to handle your truck or SUV’s pitch and roll like a champ. You’ll feel more confident behind the wheel, and those sharp corners? No problem.

When it comes to upgrading the overall performance of a vehicle, one of the best upgrades anyone can do is upgrade their suspension. It allows you to improve the vehicle's handling for a better driving experience and improve its stance, giving it a meaner, more aggressive look.
Changing your factory suspension can also improve driving comfort, perfect for those who travel long distances. Now there are multiple companies out there that offer suspension upgrades. Some are better than others. And one of those brands that excel in this department is Belltech Suspension.
Belltech has built a reputation in the automotive industry for producing some of the best lowering kits available on the market. Belltech’s lowering kits are known for their ability to safely, effectively, and efficiently lower a truck.
Helping You Build A Better RideEach Belltech lowering kit, Belltech shock, and Belltech suspension system allows you to customize your truck so that it is ideally suited to your driving needs. It’s the perfect combination of form and function, so your vehicle can look good, stand firm, and deliver a high-quality ride every time.
The History of BelltechBelltech’s story is the perfect definition of the American dream. Over 35 years ago, a small company in Fresno, California, had an idea to build the “best performing” lowering suspensions for the Chevrolet pickup. Fresno had been a haven for lowered vehicles, and trucks were abundant there. Trucks of all kinds were being lowered; however, their suspensions were quite terrible and not roadworthy.
Springs were being replaced with new ones not meant for the application. At times, they were even cut and heated with torches at local muffler shops to achieve the lowered stance that was considered to be cool. While the result was an attractive stance, the ride quality was terrible, and comfort levels dropped dramatically.
Changing The Lowering GameBelltech had a better idea: build a spindle where the wheels are higher, but the rest of the front end geometrically remains the same. And that’s precisely what they did. Belltech came up with a spindle that launched the Sport truck craze in America.
Belltech’s success in the late 80s and 90s made it possible for the company to grow from a modest beginning to a larger manufacturing facility with a satellite warehouse. In 2015, the company expanded to its current 75,000-plus square-foot operation in Clovis, California. It allows them to cater to the increasing demands of the market.
