Belltech's NEW Street Performance line of twin tube shock absorbers
sets the standards in performance handling for sport trucks.
Belltech's engineers focused their attention on tuning the low
speed compression characteristics of this shock absorber, which is
responsible for controlling your trucks pitch and roll. Heavy nose
dives under braking and excessive vehicle lean when cornering are
no longer a factor with the Street Performance shocks installed on
your truck.
Additionally, the "Progressive" rebound tuning will complement
large aftermarket wheels, keeping the ride smooth and firm. This
NEW high performance line of shock absorbers will rekindle your
love affair with your truck offering a perfect balance between
comfort and performance.
What separates the Street Performance shock absorber from the rest?
If the oversized 55mm shock bodies, 35mm pistons and 15mm Piston
rods aren't enough, the fact that each individual application has a
specific and unique damping tune should get your attention.
The engineers at Belltech invested a great amount of time to
cultivate a handling characteristic suited for each individual
truck's needs while at the same time utilizing the latest in
construction technologies available on the road today.
• Vehicle specific applications
• Oversized Construction provides additional damping
control
• 15mm piston rod, 35 mm piston and a 55 mm shock body
• Hard chromed and polished inductive piston rod provides the
best attributes for sealing and movement along the guide
bearing
• Teflon coated "DU" bushing avoids metal to metal contact,
provides lowest possible rod friction
• Teflon band encased piston resulting in no cylinder tube
BT?s new shock technology / wear or metal to metal contact for
friction free operation

Over 25 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 in abundance. Trucks were being lowered but their
suspensions were terrible and not very roadworthy. Springs were
either replaced with new ones not necessarily meant for the
application and even worse they may be cut or heated with a torch
at the local muffler shop to give the lowered stance that was cool.
The stance looked good but the ride was terrible. Belltech's design
staff had a better idea - Why not build a spindle where the wheels
are higher but all of the rest of the front end geometry stays the
same? In fact that's just what they did and the drop spindle that
launched the Sport truck craze in America was born. To go along
with the drop spindle the rest of the truck suspension needed to be
addressed also. Shackles, hanger kits, lowered coil springs and
flip kits soon followed. Keeping with the spirit of the "best
performing" suspension the Belltech staff designed and created
these components using superior materials and designs. The result
made Belltech the most asked for and successful truck suspension
brand in the industry. Belltech's success in the late '80's and
'90's made it possible for the company to grow from a modest
beginning, to a larger manufacturing facility with a satellite
warehouse and finally in 2003 to the current 115,000+ sq. ft.
operation located in Sanger, California. The Sanger facility has
made it possible to expand every aspect of the operation. In early
2005 Belltech and its sister company Suspension Techniques joined
the team of KW automotive North America, Inc, the North American
arm of KW automotive GmbH, Germany. As part of KW automotive North
America, Inc Belltech continues its growth in product development
and technology advancement along with its three sibling companies:
KW Suspensions - The world leader in height and dampening
adjustable coilover suspension.
